Otocinclus and shrimp

[freespool]

Is it safe to put Otocinclus algae eaters in a tank with Cherry Shrimp?

[eklikewhoa]

Yes, they work together but make sure you supplement their diet as food source might become scarce.

The only ones you have to worry about is the Zebra ottocinclus

[Cheapomatic]

Yes they will work fine. I had those before.

i have them in with my snowball shrimp and they just push the shrimp out of the way when its algae wafer time. someone reminded me that they may take shrimplets since they will eat small brine shrimp. i havent noticed them doing anything like that in my tank but then my shrimp colony is pretty new so if i have shrimplets they are still too small to leave the riduclulous amounts of moss and subwassertang thats in there with them.
