    You should be able to. The pleco doesn't have the mouth shape for consuming shrimp or small fishes.

    You will surprised, Squee...

    But for bristlenose, it should be safe... Furthermore, glass shrimps are fierce and not as 'meeky' as the smaller ornamental shrimps...

    Dwarf Endlers?? What's that?

    But, anyway, glass shrimps are known to attack small fish and feast on them when they are sleeping... Particularly those with pincers...

    I think this belongs more to the invertabrete forum.
