keep your valuable shrimps away from cichlids and characins.

why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

well, unless you've a large enough tank with lots of hiding places, i guess i'll not advise mixing shrimps with discus. Even if you do, i guess you'll pretty much find your shrimps hiding themselves away, then there's pretty much no point in keeping them.
just my 2cent feedback
i used to have wood shrimps in my tank even they ended in my discus mouth![]()

discus should love shrimps... even the market prawns...
