i tried it before. a few bigger ones would attack and eat my neon tetras.
They are good scavengers.Any food not eaten by the fish will be eaten by them.But beware!My bee shrimps fall prey to this "feeder" shrimp.
they will grow big.. and will attack small fish
yup, they attached my h.rasbora & tetra.in the end, took them out of the tank.causing more harm than usefulness.
I used them in my tanks for snail control.
1) They are scavengers and so lower the snail population if there are no excess food lying around.
2) They eat snails on occasion.
The bigger shrimps with big pincers may catch your tetras for a meal. So I used the smaller ones.

Juggler's tanks
The big shrimps with pincers!!!
Argh, they eat up my tetras and amanos and malayans. I only put in about 5 and everything else gone. Not worth the risk. Interestingly, they eat almost everything but notice that they didn't touch the smear algae.
