Are there any types of fish that can be added to my tank with the super shrimp and snails?

Yes, but shrimps would be eaten.

Indeed, I can only imagine how tiny the fish you get would need to be for them not to eat the adult shrimp, let alone babies. Not sure if there are any herbivorous brackish water fish on the market either, and regardless I assume any fish you got would have appetites that would make them pretty much impossible to maintain in the sparse setups that super shrimp thrive in. Then there is the higher oxygen requirement the fish are likely to have.

Ok thanks. I have a new tank setup. Just received the snails. No shrimp yet. Was surprised at how small the snails are. Will probably be surprised by the shrimp too. But excited to try this.
