Shrimp breeding doubling as fry tanks

[shift]

I have been working on breeding some CPD's and have been thinking of doing double duty on the shrimp tanks and using them to raise fry. Does anyone else double duty their shrimp tanks? Have you have any issue with nano and shrimp?

I'm kinda confused, but if your trying to ask if your should try feeding baby shrimp to fry, why not? That's probably not your question though.

shrimp will eat the fish eggs but if you are trying to get the fry to a larger size to where the adults wont eat them it might be ok

Haha no no. Raising fry in a shrimp tank. Full grown CPD's are only about an inch so I don't think it would be a huge risk to the shrimp

they will lower your survival rate of baby shrimp. but increase the survival rate of fry fish.

So far the fry can only really manage baby brine shrimp. How tiny is a new born shrimp? Do you think a small cpd could actually eat one?

[Bananariot]

Adults will eat baby shrimp for sure.

I accidentally spawned rainbowfish in my shrimp tanks multiple times when I moved plants into my shrimp tanks. I didn't feed them anything special and they grew up well in the shrimp tanks
