Hi, is this fish safe for shrimp tank?

[Vincentwangzx]

Yes they are. They're not interested in shrimp at all. Neither are the shrimp interested in them. They do eat the same kind of food so you'll need to watch the quantity you buy.

I encountered SAE which attacked shrimps too. I guess it will always depend on the character of the individual fish which you had caught.

Thank guys. I think I better stay again...

My sae will head butt my little cory away from the food when i feed them.

My SAE seem be like dont bother my RCS/CRS/Yamato shrimp. Maybe the shrimp has a lot of hiding place. Recently, i still see guppies fry in my tank,

A tank top cover is a must for housing them. Used to own 3 juveniles bought from Seaview to control algae bloom in 2ft.
Sure they did their job in the planted tank well. Then.. As mentioned by some here, they decided to perform 'aerial stunts' and never to be seen again..

It true, i personally witness my SAE attacking my cherry. It actually grow so big now. Like 6 to 7 cm and they are quite aggressive now. I had to remove it. Sigh..

Your look like a red line torpendo.

[Melvin Ong]

It is not SAE.

Well decide to buy API algaefix .... Do I need to remove my activated carbon filter and purigen ?

Beware of that API algaefix, some livestock cannot take it. Hopefully your tank no snail and shrimp.
I lose all 70% of my cheapo shrimp, snail and even guppy. In exchange to clear away all the hair algae. Hehe.
For me, i dont remove my purigen, i have no carbon filter.

Actually, I feel that I rarely need the SAE's or Ottos' assistance in clearing the algae because my tank just happens to be immaculately clean! Most my Ottos I introduced into the tank have passed away...... Am I doing anything wrong? Or do I just don't require Ottos?

Otos are good in clearing brown algae. Otos can be very sensitive especially during the translation period in your tank.
Just make sure your water parameter is stable and safe. Provide some food like zucchini, carrot, etc.
My tips is to choose those fat and big type otos and it has higher chance of survival.

Okay!
