Looking for a fish

[trombonier]

Looking for a carnivorous fish that won't bother my shrimp and Cory Cats. Also it's a lightly planted tank and I'd like to keep it that way.

I have a 40 gallon tank.
Any suggestions for a fish that fits that?

Thank you

Carnivorous ?

Tetras have teeth. They like meaty foods. Cories love meat based diets esp live foods.

What kind of Shrimp ?

I believe they're called Amano Shrimp.
I was looking at some Bucktooth Tetra. They seem a bit aggressive. Would they tear up my plants?

They would kill your other fish !
Species only is best.

I was talking about Neons. They eat bloodworms and brine Shrimp.

Bucktooths won't bother your corys, but I can't say for sure about the shrimp.
A better choice might be diamond tetras, or maybe Colombian tetras... Loads of options out there, though. Bucktooths get rather large, are best kept in larger schools, and limit tankmate options.

Would they be okay in my 8.4 pH & 25+ dH water?

Probably a bit hard
