Red eye and GSP

The shell on shrimp really isn't very crunchy, ghost shrimp isn't hard enough either.

I first got my snails from petco, they just have those little pest snails in all their tanks and they gave me a bunch for free. If you feel ambitious you could try and breed apple snails too. You could try the classifieds on here, I see threads about people wanting to get rid of pest snails all the time.
 
My sick red eye didn't make it, I found him at the bottom of the tank dead this afternoon. The remaining one seems to be doing really well though, eating shrimp and buzzing around.

Any suggestions for a possible tankmate that would be able to escape her fin nipping ways? There's a pleco in there with her now, but i'd like to fill out the tank a bit more.
 
I'm sorry to hear that :(

If you haven't already, make a thread in the FW section asking about tankmates, I'm pretty sure there is at least one person on here with red eyes in community tanks.
