    i would beware of the shrimp with female guppies, i had a big in my cherry tank and it would catch a shrimp every once in a while... and if you get crystal shrimp try to go with at least 6 more would be better, like a dozen if you going to breed them and work for a better grade.

    okay, thanks for the tips and advice.
    I've kept cherry shrimp with guppies before and never ran into a problem...but then again always had plenty of plants for hiding.

    no problem. im not sure if the guppy attacked them or they were dying and she just got a meal out of the deal so i could be wrong. the little shrimp are fast for their size. anyway good luck :D
