glofish and blue pearls in the same tank

Post by durtypanda »

Hello i am wondering if this is a good idea.to keep 5 glofish with 10 blue pearls will they try to eat the shrimp or eat the baby shrimps.also do you think that is over stocked for a 10 gal? I could only buy 10 at a time from tbe seller and i plan on breeding in the same tank.i also have a question if anyone has ever used super glue to attach moss to lava rock or driftwood?? Thanks again

my personnal opinion , is if you want breed shrimp , keep shrimp only .... of course you will always found people who say this X fish never touch my shrimp or shrimplet, but general rules is for breeding kkep only shrimp.
just my 2 cents
I have no clue what glofish is actually .....

No, he means "glofish". It's a copyrighted name for genetically modified zebrafish. These zebra danios have a jellyfish gene spliced into their dna that makes their skin luminescent. Just type in "glofish" in google and see the pictures. Either way, danios can and will bother small shrimp.
