Do loaches eat shrimp?

Asked: Ivan Tarasyuk, Last Updated:

Any fish with a big enough mouth may eat shrimp. Usually shrimp are kept with small fish like the smaller Tetras, Rasboras and similar fish. Not with any large fish. In a densely planted tank there will be hiding places for the shrimp, but Loaches are designed to search out shrimp, snails and similar critters.
