    Is the "Cameroon Armoured Shrimp" compatible with smaller shrimps like cherry/crystal red/bee/etc.... ?

    Fistly is this tank going to be community tank/ just shrimp tank?
    If you are making it into community tank, try get fish with small mouth/appetite.
    cardinal will be okay but not for shrimplet. Young shrimp may even end up as bettas
    dessert. If you want to reproduce(breed) your shrimp,get boraras, otos, paros(canivour but smaller mouth). Lesser fish in tank higher chance of shrimp reproductivity.

    Cameroon Armoured Shrimp, never heard about it before. Any pic?

    I think the season for Cameroon Armored Shrimp is over, got to wait again. They are filter feeder so will not harm the other shrimps.
    Corydoras: 2 x adolfoi, 1 x agassizii, 5 x albino aeneus, 3 x arcuatus, 4 x atropersonatus, 3 x axelrodi, 6 x axelrodi variante B, 4 x caudimaculatus, 5 x duplicareus, 8 x goldlines, 3 x kanei, 3 x loretoensis, 6 x melini, 4 x panda, 6 x schwartzi, 3 x similis, 4 x sterbai, 4 x surinamensis, 5 x trilineatus, 4 x tukano & 3 x zygatus

    RIP 1 x adolfoi, 1 x albino aeneus & 2 x panda

    Jowy, please avoid using sms language and short forms when posting...

    The armoured shrimps would do well with the smaller shrimps...

    Cardinals are ok with the shrimps, though almost no fish would be good tankmates for shrimplets...

    Bettas are no no for small shrimps. They get too curious and will quickly find out that shrimps are tasty...
    Read me! :bigsmile: http://justikanz.blogspot.com/

    I'm crypt collecting... Starting cheap, now have Cryptocoryne beckettii, C.beckettii var petchii, C.crispatula var.balansae, C.griffithii(Melted! ), C.nurii, C.parva, C.pygmaea(Melted! ), C.tonkinensis(Melted! ), C.walkeri, C.wendtii 'Brown', C.wendtii 'Green', C.wendtii 'Green Gecko', C.wendtii 'Tropica' and Cryptocoryne x willisii

    Oh, juggling is hard work, man!...
