what eats more algae amano or cherry shrimp?? i might order some cherry shrimp but i am still deciding, spent most of my money on ferts lately but paycheck is in a few days also are they the same size as a ghost shrimp? or smaller? and are they lazy at eating algae?
I believe Amanos get significantly larger than ghost shrimp. I have a dozen or so Amanos and they seem to moult more often than do my ghost shrimp, which are also smaller.
here's a great page that goes over the differences in freshwater shrimp http://www.azgardens.com/shrimpfactory.php and they say cherry shrimp are about half the size of amanos.
