:These shrimp are not really compatible with any fish except for certain very small fish as long as you don't mind shrimp casualties. Make sure you screen your intake before putting these in or their offspring will get sucked into the filter. The best bet is to keep these in a tank by themselves or with any other Caridina or Neocaridina since the belief held right now is that these shrimp do not interbreed with other shrimp currently in the hobby. I have kept these in with Blue pearl shrimp, which is a Neocaridina with no problems of interbreeding and since the Malawa shrimp is usually an orange like colour it is easily distinguished from the other species in the tank. I feed these guys dried blanched zucchini and they seem to enjoy it because they all come to the surface and weigh down the zucchini until it falls to the bottom. | :These shrimp are not really compatible with any fish except for certain very small fish as long as you don't mind shrimp casualties.
