Who Gives A Fish Forums

Man, I tried Cherry Shrimp once and my Tetras ate them all in like a day. Maybe I just got some aggressive ones, but it was a bummer. Stick to bigger shrimp like Amanos if you're worried.


That's a good point. Amanos are tougher and less likely to get eaten. They're also great at cleaning up ...

For a 20-gallon high, I'd recommend a small school of Neon Tetras or Ember Tetras. They're chill and won't mess with your plants. Just keep the temp around 78°F and do weekly 20% water changes. Avoid anything too big like Angelfish, they'll outgrow it fast.
