Bamboo Shrimp (Asian Filter Shrimp) are totally safe to have in your tank. They will not harm any other inhabitants including smaller shrimp. I have one in my 10 gallon with RCS as well. Make sure that there is a good water flow in the tank for the Asian Filter to feed from. They need moving water to spread their fans and grab particles from the water.Wandering the pet store, my son and I were fairly amused watching some bamboo shrimp. Wondering if they would be any risk to baby RCS, or if adding even one of these would substantially impact the quantity of cherries he can have in his 10 gallon. Also wondered if these things might help filter out more than microscopic stuff, such as the occasional nematode and such. Opinions appreciated!
