So I have a old 10 gallon tank that I want to restart. I was thinking of simple things, like a betta and a couple of cost shrimp? You think that the shrimp would be fine or would the betta eat the shrimp?

The betta will probably eat smaller shrimp, may go after the extremities of larger shrimp, all depends on its personality..I'd start with one or 2 shrimp and see how it goes..

I think there's a good chance that the beta would eat smaller shrimp. I'm not sure if it would attack the larger shrimp.
 
Shrimp aren't expensive it's worth trying

True does depend on the shrimp. I don't mean to sound negative I moreso ment if there's a good chance it will work why not give it a try.
