Black-shell shrimp is suitable for mixing with small and gentle fish, not with aggressive fish or larger fish. They are small, only 2-3 cm long, and are not aggressive. If they are mixed with aggressive or large fish, they may be eaten.
Black shell shrimp and traffic light fish, zebrafish, moonfish, Mary fish and other small fish culture together. These fish generally do not attack adult black shell shrimp if they have enough food. However, young black shell shrimp are likely to be eaten by fish because of their small size. When mixed farming, shrimp nests or aquatic plants need to be set up to provide shelter for shrimp. This can increase the survival rate of shrimp.
Small goldfish and adult black shell shrimp can be raised together. However, the size of the goldfish is too large or just born young shrimp is not suitable for polyculture, the best monoculture. Because the size of the goldfish may be too large to eat black shell shrimp, and juvenile black shell shrimp size is too small, may also be eaten by goldfish. When mixing fish and shrimp, it is recommended to put some shells or artificial shrimp houses to provide shelter for shrimp. This can reduce their chances of being eaten.
