Ghost Shrimp And Electric Blue Rams?

[Livewire88]

I am thinking of adding some Ghost Shrimp to my tank, my LFS has some large Ghost shrimp that are larger than my Electric Blue Rams.

Will the Rams still attack the shrimp? I assume they will only attack them if they are smaller because these shrimp are almost twice the size of my EBR.

Update,

I dont know what I was worried about, I bought the shrimp added them to the tank and they chased the Electric Blue Rams around the tank!!

Do you have any photos of these shrimp?

Not at the moment, but I can get some later or tomorrow, I am to busy watching Bettaboys Website update with all its new stock

Why dont you believe me?

Edit; to be fair the shrimp were swimming round the tank like crazy for the first 15 mins, so it looked like they were chasing everything. They are settled down now sat on the bogwood

You either have incredibly tiny rams or massive ghost shrimp - I'm just wondering if it's really a ghost shrimp. Does it have claws?

I don't think it was a question of not believing you. Soybean was probably wondering if you got the shrimp you paid for. Many shrimp are labeled as "ghost" shrimp when in fact they could be one of the larger, predatory types. Shrimp "chasing" fish may be of some concern so that's why a pic would be helpful.

Hang on I will try and get a picture, Good point and thanks for the advice.. :good

EDIT; Bit of a pain to try and picture them, they seem to scoot away when I hold the camera up to the tank!! (typical)
I have google searched Ghost Shrimp images and they are definitely them, My EBR are very small I would guess around 2-3 cm's so I guess if they were a bit bigger it would be a different story.

2nd EDIT, picture shows how small my EBR are!

3rd EDIT picture shows one of the shrimp, one of the smaller ones.
