Any chance to include a few shrimp into a 160-gallon tank with 5 blood red parrots and 1 firemouth cichlid?
All of the cichlids are adults about 3 years old. To my amazement they are cohabitating perfectly with a bunch of fancy guppies that I put in expecting they would be "treats". They ignore even the fry. Their diet has always been very good cichlid pellets.
My sense tells me the shrimp will prove irresistible but I had the same idea about the guppies and particularly their spawn.
