in the near future i was looking into getting a zebra pleco for my comunity tank. the tank also has several yellow shrimp aswell as CRS and CBS in it. would it be safe or would the zebra eat them
IMO Zebra won't prey on dwarf shrimps, but CRS will have problem surviving in the high temp in a Zebra pleco setup, Neocaridina like yellow shrimps should be ok, but speed up metabolism will shorten their lifespan.
Totally agree with Shaobo. It's been done numerous times, H. Zebra with dwarf shrimp and the only time they will eat the shrimp is usually after they are dead.
