it depends on what type of shrimp you want. ghost shrimp or even cherry shrimp would easily get gobbled up by them

Bamboo or vampire shrimp because they get pretty big. The tiger barbs might pick on them anyway, though.

hi
my filter shrimp are alive and well,living with a group of
eight greedy tiger barbs.
however the tank has got plants and rocky places,
so they are some what protected.
the largest is now two inches.

my barbs ate up my ghost shrimp within minutes. try growing your shrimp before you put them in the tank that way they wont be too vulnerable

My barbs never touched my bamboo shrimp. The shrimp were pretty big. They died in the power outage.
