Amona And Cherry Shrimp

[Gazo]

Hi guys,
Will baby shrimp of the Amano and Cherry (size currently 1inch) be ok in the main tank in my sig?
Currently in the small tank with the Guppy babies, but if they need to grow bigger before moving, I will keep them in there until a good enough size.
Thanks,
Gazo

Baby newborn cherries will probably be hunted by the mollies if they're very small. 1" is fully grown for cherries and safe. I have a few adult cherries in my molly tank specifically for this - the mollies love chasing the babies. They don't bother with anything over a centimeter though, and once the babies are 4 weeks old they're pretty safe.

The amano babies will also be eaten, not a problem as they need to be moved to seawater for the first few months of life.
