So I have been going crazy trying to catch these shrimp eating ramshorn snails on video. They gut the snails so fast that by the time I get the camera they are done LOL.

Just a little update....

So These shrimp are alot of fun to watch. They tend to hide but once you put some food in the tank they all come out and go crazy. So far I have found they are not fans of algae wafers or shrimp food. But they love snails dead or alive, Krill, and Tetrachiclid flakes.

Their are four juvinile cherry shrimp in the tank with them. I guess I Missed them when I took the others out of the tank. So far they haven't been eaten by the red claws.

When they are not out looking for food they are normally in there hiding places. The males have been behaving they just sit there waving at eachother. When the females start fighting a male will break them up.
