ghost shrimp actually do eat poo, and leave LESS poo behind, making them a good clean-up crew.

The famous white-sand beaches of Hawaii, for example, actually come from the poop of parrotfish. The fish bite and scrape algae off of rocks and dead corals with their parrot-like beaks, grind up the inedible calcium-carbonate reef material (made mostly of coral skeletons) in their guts, and then excrete it as sand.

The loaches that tend to eat snails are the botia loaches like clowns and striped loaches. None of which would be compatible with your tank anyhow due to size. Dojo loaches also eat snails but only smaller ones. A mystery snail is too big for a dojo.

They don't harm anything (unless there is an outbreak, that's just gross lol). I've gotten an outbreak when switching stocks and not adjust the food level low enough in a tank. They will eat snail/shrimp food and cover it (shrimp are so slow to eat).

The short answer to this question is yes, African dwarf frogs will eat ghost shrimp if given the chance. ... Also, some ghost shrimp might be a bit too big for an African dwarf frog to eat, but then again, a larger specimen of frog could easily eat a smaller or medium size ghost shrimp.

Ghost Shrimp can usually escape a hungry goldfish, but not always. They may survive better with the fancy, slower goldfish, however, most ghost shrimp are sold as feeder shrimp, and therefore not usually given a great deal of care in the breeding.

Since most aquarium shrimp share a similar temperament you can add other species to complement the ghost shrimp. Cherry shrimp pair particularly well due to their vibrant color, but other species work well too (e.g. bamboo shrimp, vampire shrimp or amano shrimp). Snails are also a good way of diversifying the tank.

Yabbies are true scavengers so will eat almost any sinking food that fish eat as well as disks of carrot, peas, potato peels, spinach and most fruit. They will also eat aquatic plants and the carcasses of dead or dying fish. Don't feed them chunks of meat but the occasional garden worm is a nice treat.

Yes, Mystery snails will definitely eat dead fish. They prefer dead or dying vegetation, but they are opportunistic feeders and will eat just about anything if they are hungry enough, even each other!!!

Shrimp Will Eat Anything As they grow, they'll also eat algae, dead and living plants, worms (even decaying worms), fish, snails and even other dead shrimps. Shrimp in a fish aquarium will feed on algae growing in the tank and also will clear up any leftover bits of fish food.

Generally, they are not reef safe. The shrimp, starfish, and any clean up crew (snails/hermit crabs) will become food. It will probably pick on the angel too. Also, juvenile triggers do not fare well in aquariums and 90 gal is small for this fish.

Can dwarf gouramis eat cherry shrimp? ... Yep, they'll eat them. Even if the gourami can't eat adult shrimp in one bite, he will pick at the shrimp until they die and eat the dead shrimp. Most fish will eat juvenile shrimp and some will eat adult shrimp.

Although axolotls in the wild would eat fish, in captivity a new set of problems arises. ... Alternatively, live shrimp are generally considered safe for axolotl food. Ghost shrimp especially are commonly used. They'll help clean the tank for as long as they last, and some may last for quite a while.

I wanted to get ghost shrimp or amano shrimp. In a well matured tank bio film will breakdown "eat" fish poop and in turn your shrimp will graze on the bio film, but as stated above they do not feed on feces itself.

Ghost Shrimp are extremely hardy and condition tolerant when directly compared to other varieties of shrimp such as Crystal Red Shrimp and Red Cherry Shrimp. ... Ghost Shrimp will consume almost any type of food. They are also effective scavengers. Ghost shrimp are tolerant but are still sensitive to water fluctuations.

Ghost shrimp are super easy to care for, especially if you make it out of the first month when they can be tricky, due to poor keeping and transporting in the industry. You don't need any type of moss ball really to keep them. They happily eat detritus, left over fish food, and even fish poop.

Cory Catfish Cories are a type of catfish. They probably will not eat snails, though some say they will eat small ones. However, they are industrious scavengers that may eat or damage snail eggs. ... If they gobble up a few snail eggs here and there all the better.
