Just got a couple for my 75 gal community tank. Was wondering if anyone had any luck with them... pics maybe?
Thanks! That really gives me an idea of what I can mix with Cherrys. I am about to get a 250 gallon tank from my fiancee's parents (their Water Dragon recently died and I'm gonna clean that out and make a really nice aquatic setup). I'm thinking about doing a massive planted setup with large numbers of very small shoaling fish and lots (maybe 20 or more) of Cherry shrimp as well as other fish to balance out the micro-ecosystem. Any ideas on which species? (I know that the Bloodfins are really neat when in large groups)I have cherrys with neons, lemon tetras, platys, mollys, a dojo loach, and a betta. If the shrimp are bigger than the fishes mouth, you are good. The betta and loach even leaves the baby shrimp alone.
I'll try to get a picture of a Shrimp riding a Discus. It's kind of comical.So your the one with the QUEEN cherry shrimp!
I'm kind of surprised the Discus don't bother them.
