Are pygmy Corydoras compatible with CRS?

Hi,

Is it ok to keep Cory pygmy with CRS? I'm afraid the shrimplets will become their meals. Thanks

even with them not eating shrimplets, they are super active fish. constantly swimming around finding food. and that willl stress your shrimps.. and also, corys are needed to be kept in small groups.. which make it worst if a small group of say 6, rushing around your tank stressing your dear CRS.
my 2 cents.

Should be ok. I got 2 cory + 20 shrimps.

I do not think pygmy Corydoras will eat shrimplets. I have 6 of them with Cherry shrimps without problem. I found them to be very shy fish, most of the time hiding so no problem with food figting between shrimps and cory.

Unless your shrimplets are already dead. otherwise i don't think the corys will eat them purposely. usually they move quite alot so your shrimplets should get the notice quite early and get out of the way.
