    hmm....should be the other way round. The guppy can bite the shrimps and eat the shrimplets, if any.

    Re: guppy with shrimps

    should have no problems ? i keep my guppies with my shrimps , no problems so far. but the guppies might bite the shrimps and eat the shrimplets when they are hungry.. good idea to have alot of plants for them to hide thou.

    Low tech tank FTW!

    Re: guppy with shrimps

    Some hiding place at the bottom of the tank for the shrimps will do.
    Guppies usually swim at the top waiting for food.

    I ever lost 8 tetras. 7 without a trace. suspect they may have ended up in my filter but never checked. 1 was found in the vicinity of the tank. Did you check your tank surrounding?

    Re: guppy with shrimps

    Watch out for the ph requirement between CRS and Guppies.
    Guppy don't like low ph.
    I keep Guppies with fire red and sakura in 4ft tank, so far no problem.
