info about bamboo shrimp

[LMOUTHBASS]

i saw some huge ones at the lfs the other day and i want to get one they were big though a solid 2-3 inches -my question is - are they brackish like most shrimp?
will they tear up my plants?
will they attempt to eat small fish?
(i know they are filter feeders so i doubt they'll bother fish)
will they get enough food in my tank i feed a variety of food and always give a little extra to make sure my bottom crew eats
also all other info welcome!
thanks LMB


oh yeah one more will my pictus cats bother them i have two and they are four inches the shrimp i saw were almost as big i plan on getting the cats a new home hopefully soon as i think they ate two of my ottos and my kuhli loach

Wood/Singapre/Flower/Bamboo shrimp are FW.

I do not do well with them in mixed tanks, they are far easier in a species tank. Starvation is a real issue for them.

Kagh't (spelling?) has reported breeding of them in posts here at AC.

Pictus will eat whatever fits in their mouth.
