Ghost shrimp are really hardy. I've had mine since the beginning of the very first tank and is still alive. As a ghost shrimp's life isn't very long, I wasn't in this hobby for a year yet.

I was thinking of putting a couple Bamboo shrimp into my 29gallon community tank. i have a few rainbows, an eclipse cat, 2 corys, and soon to be 2 spotted leaf fish. Do you think they will be ok? i know the rainbows can be nippers. the cats will leave it alone...what do you think?
Fish are people too.

In all likelihood the leaf fish would eat them. Those fish are carnivorous and are attracted to small moving prey like shrimp. I'm not saying it would happen immediately, but one day you will likely return to find missing shrimp and some very fat and happy leaf fish.
