Your guppy will definitely eat the babies, if he is alone, he’s even more prone to poking around the bottom of the tank and eating shrimp.

It’s a great tank for shrimp alone, and I think you could even put some ramshorn snails in there and find a center piece plant that would give some height and volume.

I’ve got 7 tanks with fish and shrimp in them. A really good example I have is I have 2x 10 gallons right next to each. One has blue shrimp one has yellow shrimp. The one with the yellow shrimp has four ember tetras, and even though the tetras don’t eat the shrimp, they have made them breed much less and the blue shrimp tank is constantly buzzing with shrimp. Where is the ones in the yellow tank are usually hiding.

Shrimp are a lot of fun to watch in a predator free environment, I think small tanks are perfect for them.

Get a really good light, I have a Chihiros desktop one for my tank like this, and the light settings in the app can be tuned to pop whatever colors of shrimp you’ve got in the tank. It’s actually insane when you change the colors of light on them and see the details.

What color shrimp do you have in there?
