Yea, 6 habrosus would fit, you'd need to be on your weekly wc's though..that's a pretty hearty bio load and water could go south fast. Not impossible though..

CPDs would require diff temperature to your shrimp wouldn't they?

Have a look at a pair of Badis Badis as an option.

Im looking more at dwarf emerald rasboras or ember tetras which both have the same temp needs as the shrimp. And brookster i might just let the shrimp multiply and leave off the cories.

I asked the manager of the pet supermarket and he ordered 12 embers which came in in a couple of days. Try asking whatever petco or pet smart or fish store near you. That was the only way I could get them because no one seems to stock them where I live.... Alison...

Sorry I forgot to add I just bought the number I wanted the rest went into their stock. They were 2.99
each. Alison

Do you guys think two male guppies would work? Aqadvisor said it would but would they leave the shrimp alone?

So if i want to keep the shrimp thatd probably be a no go?

I mean it could work.... i just don't like guppys, they usually die real fast and their dumb tails look stupid..

The Guppies I've had have always been fine with shrimp!

I had gups that even killed ghost shrimp. :/ I now avoid guppies with shrimp even though in general, I think they are usually ok.
But, here is the thing, the smaller mouth on a fish with rcs, the better. They will pretty much all eat rcs if they can. But, smaller mouths and bellies means more chances of surviving rcs. Make sure there is a good amount of plant cover though. Rcs can get stressed when they are being stalked by fish all day and stop breeding.
