Those forums are for fish people that may keep shrimp too and probably don't much care about breeding. We are mostly shrimp people who may keep fish and are very much into breeding them. You don't see stuff unless you look for it. Many gentle fish are fine with adult shrimp, but few are OK with babies. The babies are just like any other live food.

Its not so much attack......it's eating really. My little pygmaeus loved the live tubifex I gave them and are happy to "whisker" all foods offered. I guess I can see how they could damage tiny delicate babies.

Good luck trying to keep your shrimp alive in a 1 gallon tank.
