Are these shrimp trying to eat my endlers?

[rparrish]

I just got my endlers in and it seems that my shrimp are taking a lot of interest in them. Maybe too much interest? I've been googling to try and tell what kind of shrimp they are and it looks like they may be whisker shrimp (which can be predatory) instead of the ghost shrimp I thought i bought. Are you familiar with this stuff? What do you think? Pics attached.

Thanks so much for your time and for sharing any knowledge you may have!

The ghosts I got from walmart killed several of my guppies

Can't tell too well from the pics, but shrimp with the longer arm/pinchers are the predatory kind. If the arms are the same length as their other legs then you might be okay. I bough ghost shrimp to eat left over bits of food in my guppy fry tank...they ate the little guppies.

Demeter32 is correct. Hard to tell here but the front arms will tell which type you have.
I'd questioned my amano shrimp for a little while because I'd caught him with a few of my endlers and wasn't sure if he'd killed them or was feasting on their dead bodies.
Turned out...I had a water issue that sadly killed a few endlers and my Amano (truly an amano) was taking advantage of the situation and stuffing his little face.
Cute endlers by the way
