Bolivian Rams and Bamboo/wood shrimp together. - Aquarium Advice

Don't do it. My bamboo shrimp was gobbled up the first time it molted with the new roommates (my Rams). Nothing else ever bothered it (angelfish, severum, polypterus, various loaches, red tail shark, cories, german rams...).

It would have been the third molting for my shrimp since I picked it up in march (or was it april?).

patryuji, I'm sorry

I do remember you posting about this shrimp. I would have thought that the polypterus or maybe the severums would be the suspects.

WOW,

My bamboo's do fine in a Discus and Ram tank. Molts once a month. How often you feed? Maybe your underfeeding and the fish got a little aggressive???

Thats a real bummer.
