Hi, first post
I've got a small well planted tank (90l) with a few danios, tetras and three Ottos. I introduced a couple of what I was told were Amano Shrimp and at first all seemed well. I then saw the Amano attack a Rummy Nose Tetra by grabbing its tail, the tail later turned white and the Tetra died. I supplement the shrimps diet with tablet food and bits of cucumber.
This morning there is another Rummy with a white half chewed rear end. I read that Amano's sometimes attack fish if the temp is on the high side so I've adjusted it down from 26°C to 24°C. I'm wondering if what I've got are not Amanos. The pictures of Amano's on the web look nothing like the shrimps in my tank To my untrained eye they look more like Ghost Shrimps. Do these attack fish?
Here's a pic, any ideas?
