Will a Kuhli loach eat Cherry or Ghost shrimp

[cavnoe]

I want to purchase a Kuhli Loach but I am not sure if it will eat my Cherry or my Ghost shrimp. Has anyone ever had their Kuhli Loaches in the same tank as their Ghost/Cherry shrimp?

I can't say on the shrimp as I've never owned them but something you may want to think about is that loach are shoaling fish and you can't just have one.

From the research I been doing on them says they are carnivorous. So if it reaches a size that they could fit in its mouth, I'd say it would. I know they live frozen/live brine shrimp.

I have five black kuhli loaches and 2 ghost shrimp, they haven't tried to eat them. But i have never had a problem with them eating my guppy fry either.

Kuhli loaches will only eat baby shrimp.

I was planning on purchasing a few of them. I wanted to make sure they would be good tank mates for the other fish in my tanks. I think I will purchase them and watch the tank. If I have to I will remove them or the ghost shrimp to another tank. Can you mix kuhli loaches with gold loaches ?
