Hello,
I've recently (2 months ago) set up an aquarium, and have 2 Zebra Danios, 1 Dwarf Gourami, and one dwarf powder blue gourami. I plan on adding a Red Fire gourami.
Yesterday I added 3 ghost shrimp. today, I was only able to find one, although the other two maybe hiding or just hard time find at this time.
Are the above mentioned fish a threat to the ghost shrimp? I don't belive the Danios are an issue, but I seem to find conflicting info on the Gouramis.
Thank you.
 
We had a pet ghost shrimp that accidentally got in with the young pearl gourami. No more Fred. . . :byebye:
 
I have 6 ghost shrimp in my community with 2 honey dwarfs, no problems for 2 weeks, though one honey is a juv
 
Smaller gouramies, like the honeys mentioned in the post above, can't realy eat ghost shrimp. Dwarfs won't normaly bother adult, fully grown shrimp but may be a problem for young ones. A lot depends on the individual gourami and the sort of foods it has become accustomed to.
