Shrimp On The Menu?

[Doohiky]

Hiya,

I've got a 20 gallon tank. Live plants, filter, heat,.....etc. bla bla bla.

Anyway, in at the moment are: 1 rainbow shark, 1 butterfly fish, 2 siamese flying foxes, and 4 red eye tetras.
Ive seen yamato shrimp at my LFS and I was interested and just wondered if any of my current fish might take a liking to shrimp meat?

Cheers

If theyre small enough to fit in any of your fish's mouth, theres a chance they will be a snack...

Ok thanks.

Erm shouldn't think they should. Sharks have small mouths. Butterfly Fish stay at the top. Siamese flying foxes are peaceful and im sure Red Eye Tetras don't have mouths big enough.

I think I might look into shrimp then

Thanks.

Well if you want to give it a go, then best of luck. But if you see them being eaten/picked on id suggest rehoming them or setting up a shrimp tank.

Good luck.
