I know no fish except an oto is guaranteed to not eat a shrimp,but do you think that they are small enough to not be a big threat to the shrimp?

E evil wizard AC Members Aug 17, 2014 878 15 18 Georgia Real Name Brian Mar 29, 2015 #3 Yeah i didn't think that they would be able to eat a full grown shrimp.so with the babies it's a 50/50 chance?

E evil wizard AC Members Aug 17, 2014 878 15 18 Georgia Real Name Brian Mar 29, 2015 #5 so it is more like a 25/75 chance?with 25 being the percent of chance he eats the baby shrimp?
