Hey, I was just wondering if it would be a safe idea to have some amano shrimp in a community tank with platies, dwarf neon rainbows, and a dwarf gourami? Thanks!
 
It shouldn't be a problem although the dwarf gourami might attack it if it ventures too close in its territory. Dwarf gouramis are one of the most obnoxious anabantids. Whether there is a female or not, male dwarves will make a bubblenest and mark it as its territory and guard it ferociously.
