variety of fish which I combine with my neoCaridina shrimp?

Cpds and endlers are my favorite, If your looking to breed the shrimp and want fish.

My favorite nano fish are Boraras Brigittae. I have them in my shrimp tanks and they never bother any other inhabitants. They stay near the top and mind their own.

mine are with least killies

 

[Oceangirl]

Shrimp only. I had CPDS with my Shrimp, they got hungry and ate an entire 30+ in 2 weeks.

If you want some movement add ottos. I have no idea how they ate that many in 2 weeks.

I like that combination, Boraras Brigittae.

Where I can get those fish?
Any member can sell fish?

 

[sbarbee54]

No fish but ottos are shrimp safe. Shrimp are natural food for fish!

I keep bn plecos with my shrimp and the shrimp are multiplying like crazy!!

Iv kept many many many different types of fish with shrimp and had no problems, If your wanting to breed then that's another story as most fish will eat the shrimplets but there's definately some fish you can keep with grown shrimp.

Only fish I've tried that are perfectly suited for shrimp are Oto's. I think they are more compatible than my Amano Shrimp as they are far less pushy with food. BN Plecos are good also, but they will suck up new born shrimp, at least mine do at 2 inches in size. The Plecos don't eat small shrimp often though, so I keep them around as they don;t really make a dent in population. They are valuable glass cleaners.

I have harlequin and guppies, they swim with the RCS. I'm sure they'll go after the baby shrimps.

You can sell some Boraras?

You could also try pygmy cories. They stay at the bottom most of the time but when they swim up for air its super cute. I kept 12 with my shrimp and never had a problem

Let's face it guys people do keep shrimp with fish but it is natural food for them. If we got moved into the jungle with a bunch of lions, some would survive but they we would always be hunted and stressed out

 

[wicca27]

i agree. if you want to breed shrimp you need shrimp only tank. otos seem to be fine with them though. i have never tried them so i dont know. i had a BABY bristle nose in my 10 gal cherry tank a couple years ago. it was max 2 inches long (was a long fin and thats counting the tail fin) whipped out my colony of 100+ cherries in little over a week. never again will i trust a fish with shrimp.

I also had like 5 young bristlenose about the same size as yours in my 70 gal rcs tank for a month or so. They didn't seem to cause much trouble.

The only reason I removed them was because they liked to uproot my HC :icon_lol:

 

[Anfer]

ok!!!

 

[Anfer]

Boraras Urophthalmoides is Ok
