Pookies Aquatics Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Red-eyed tetras will most likely pick on or eat the amanos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varanidguy Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 It's a tossup and there's many factors that could play into it. Is your tank densely planted? Lots of places for the amano shrimp to hide? I have a stable colony of cherries in a community tank, and many people thought it wouldn't work at all. While I'm sure some get taken, the numbers only increase on the whole and it's been going steady for about a year and a half - even with a hungry apitso always on the prowl. But the shrimp have many areas to hide, in bushy plants, rocks, etc where the fish can't easily get to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
