Question shrimp and goldfish
Some of you may have read my previous post called snails and goldfish?, this is kinda the same thing but with shrimp. Will the goldfish be tempted to eat the shrimp? If they will what kind of shrimp do you think will be the the best.

Not only will the shrimp eat the goldfish but the ammonia and nitrites that the goldfish would add to the tank would kill the shrimp. Goldfish are very dirty fish.

This made me laugh! Its backwards but the idea is right. Goldfish will eat the shrimp. If you want to put shrimp in anyway, put ghost shrimp. At least they are cheap.
