Default Shimp Tankmates with platies/swordtails

Are there any fish sold at LFS that are compatible with platies and swordtails that wont get eaten or do the eating? I dont want those glass shrimps because I cant see them. looking for a more colorful species like Cherry Shrimp but I dont see them being sold at LFS

I see several ads on Craigslist for cherry shrimp. People probably don't realize how quickly they can multiply before they buy several shrimp, so they have to sell them for cheap.
Ever seen blue shrimps? They look cool! Tiger shrimps look really cool too, but they remind me of the shrimps we eat.
