I have a 5 gallon tank, with some plants, 8 cherry shrimps, 2 otos, 2 siamese (flying fox?), and one wood shrimp. Two of my cherry shrimps are carrying eggs and it is possible they're going to hatch any day now. My question is, does the siamese and the woof shrimp pose any threat to the newly hatched shrimplets? I'm particularly worried about the siamese algae eaters because im not sure if they're true or the flying fox kind (probably the latter) and they seem to eat almost anything I give them.
Another question, do cherry shrimps usually go to the surface of the tank? I have an open air tank and a very very hungry cat that would always drink out of my tank. 1) I'm afraid my kitty would release some chemical into the water through the cat litter in her paws. 2) She might snatch/eat any shrimps that would go up to the surface.
Your tank size is more of a threat as it is far too small for that number of animals. Wood shrimp are no threat at all, but won't last long in your setup. The foxes will eat your shrimp and are not suitable for a 5 gallon tank.
foxes are not so dangrous when they are young.
the problem is they are not staying young long and tend to change their alimentation quicly as soon they take age
adult foxes are dangerous for any fry not guarded and even the one who is guarded are in danger
Thanks for the info. The foxes are still small so I guess I have some time. In the mean time I'll have to find a new home for them! Any suggestions for a easy to move tank since I'm a student and I will be moving a lot (a lot)?
One of my tanks is a 6g Elipse acrylic tank. I had to move it in the past and it was quite simple after I removed about 1/3 of the water. The tank has its own filter and hood with light. Best wishes with the shrimp and fish .
