Could I have shrimp in my tank? (couple of questions)

rsanz · Dec 17, 2006

I have a 10g tank with a pair of Killifish.

Are killifish and shrimp compatible? Will the shrimp hurt the killies? Will the killies hurt the shrimp?

Also, I wanted to see if I could breed the killies. Would the shrimp eat the eggs?

what type of shrimp?

ushually shrimp will leave the killies alone.. just dont go with feeder ghost
(they seem to learn how to hunt when in the stores feeder bins) and the shrimp will only eat the dead eggs unless they cant find food

Man I've posted acrazy amount today lol. I read that amano type shrimp won't eat eggs but actually will clean them so they don't fungus during incubation. Take that for what it's worth?
