yes, pretty much all of them will take a shot at a young shrimp, time to time. However if you are going for a prolific breeding species, such as cherry shrimp, they will populate faster than they become prey.

As AdAndrews says really. Adults should be pretty much safe (cept for the odd one or two cherries that may go missing), so long as they can keep up breeding wise you should have no problems.

I think long term I can only see the gold barbs and keyholes persisting in trying to catch them.
