I had been considering them so that they would keep any problem populations of snails under control. I was thinking of having just one in a planted 30g tankThey're really more of a molluscivore and not particularly stealthy. They're also layyyyyyyyyyzyyyyyy. If they're getting enough food that they don't have to chase, they aren't going to bother with something hard to catch.
I had pea puffers and they will kill and eat the cherry shrimps. Also I had amazon puffers, figure 8 puffer and green spotted puffers and they all would hunt down and eat the cherry shrimps.Since we are discussing puffer fish and their compatibility with red cherry shrimp- what would you think of a pea puffer in with shrimp?
Yeah, pea puffers are vicious.I had pea puffers and they will kill and eat the cherry shrimps. Also I had amazon puffers, figure 8 puffer and green spotted puffers and they all would hunt down and eat the cherry shrimps.
Only my Congo spotted puffers do not eat cherry shrimps. They however ate 5 of my Armani shrimps which were much bigger than my cherry shrimps.
