Howdy all!

Has anyone here tried "Red Claw Shrimp"? I've seen them for sale at Aquabid and wondering if they really are safe to keep with Cherries and other shrimp.

Thanks!

No, these are not safe with any shrimp except their own kind.

They are opportunistic hunters and will eat smaller dwarf shrimp.

Are they safe for a planted tank? Will they tear up and eat the plants?

These shrimp are 100% safe in a species only planted tank.

They may tear up plants, but it is not typical.

Cheers,
