Crystal Red Shrimp With Corys?

[herrwibi]

Hi all,

I know there is no guarantee that corys won't eat baby shrimp if they are in there way.

Was just wondering if its possible to house crs and corys together ? If so would this impact breeding with them as well?

Thanks

The Corey are about as safe with shrimp as you can get. Even if a corey does eat a bay shrimp it was probably by accident, you are unlikely to see any noticeable drop in breedng numbers either. The smaller the cory (dwarf) the better/safer of course!

Agree with Simon.

I don't keep fish with my shrimp personally. But I have heard of many people keeping Cory with their shrimp, and it was fine.
