Will RES hatchlings eat Ghost Shrimp? I'm getting some shipped to me soon for my fish aquarium and was wondering of I could place a few in my 55gallon without the RES eating it =O

Thanks

Ha ha, they will eat it eventually. If there are enough places for the shrimp to find shelter, they might survive for a little while. But I doubt it. They aren't as good swimmers as fish are.

They really enjoy the ghost shrimp. I think they must be very tasty. My little ones finished off 2 dozen in 2 weeks.
