Large Ghost Shrimp With Betta

[Clownfishlover]

Can I keep a 1 1/2 in ghost shrimp with a betta or will it get eaten.

Possibly. I got two GS for my betta. He ate one in the first week, but the other was very good at hiding and survived two months before I took the betta out to put in a hospital tank.
Edit: is that a 1.5 gallon? Little small for a betta to have a tank mate and ghost shrimp prefer to be kept with more than one ghost.

Some of my bettas eat Ghost Shrimp and some of them don't care. Just depends on your fish. Ghost Shrimp are usually pretty cheap so it may be worth trying. If anything it will be a tasty snack for your betta!
