More compatibility questions...

[Tolley]

Ok so i have a few more compatibility questions...

Long story short I am considering merging my two 7.5gs to go in the 20g. (don't worry the Leo's are still staying with me but a different tank)

Anyway the stocking would be;
7 Pygmy Rasboras
3 Lampeyes
3 Sparkling Gouramis
1 Celestial Pearl Danio
Millions of cherry shrimp
Possibly 4 Bronze Corydoras

Will Bronze Corydoras eat cherry shrimp?
Will apple snails (big golden ones) eat cherry shrimp?

Bronze corys might depends on how big they are most likely. Snails definitely wont. I used to keep my cherries in my mystery tank and they bred like they were alone in there, they seem to be very comfortable with the mysterys and are even hesitant to get out of their way despite the size difference.

Not to mention i dont see apple snails catching shrimp anytime soon, unless they get superchargers sometime in the near future. :D that would be awesome

The cory may ignore the adults, but will eat whatever fits in its mouth (young shrimp, adults if it gets big enough).

but will eat whatever fits in its mouth (young shrimp, adults if it gets big enough).

I think that goes for most fish; if it's small enough, it's lunch :) You might be able to get away with it if you give the wee shrimp places to hide the big guys can't get to(pvc pipe tunnels and such) Or, you could turn one of the 7gal tanks into a shrimp only tank and let them go nuts in there, then move some into the 20 and see how it goes.
