I think Amano shrimp is correct. LFS said they'd only grow to an inch, but LFS seems to talk mostly from the posterior end. Thanks :)I went off the deep endComment

No you don't need smaller shrimp. Shrimp are very little bio load and they help keep things clean.Comment

the males will stay smaller and dont seem to be as aggressive, at least mine dont. the one in the pic appears to be a male, judging from the more roundish spots. on my females, the spots are ovals and sometimes join to form dashed lines. i havent seen them go after small fish but they do get to the food in a hurry.75G Standard - High Light Planted Community Fish
