Other tank fish may not eat the shrimp for several reasons, including size differences, behavioral traits, or dietary preferences. Many freshwater shrimp are small and can easily hide among plants and decorations, making them less visible to larger fish. Additionally, some fish species may not recognize shrimp as food due to their natural feeding habits. Finally, certain shrimp species produce chemicals that can deter fish from viewing them as prey.

It is important to monitor the behavior of all fish in the tank to ensure they are getting along.
