I picked up two corydoras hasbrosus from an auction table recently and just put them into the most appropriate tank I had. It's a planted 10g with a fairly large breeding colony of cherry shrimp as well as a couple of small (temporary )upper dwelling fish.
They're really cute and I would like to get some more to go with them but wanted to check your opinions on the shrimp. I know they can't harm the cories but I just wonder if there are any other factors involved that might make them poor tankmates long term.

I tried keeping amano shrimp with corydoras pygmaeus once but found that the shrimp took all of the food (pellet, bloodworm, brineshrimp etc), aggressively at times. This was in a well planted tank and I had been target feeding the shrimp with courgette, algae wafers as well as all the algae they were eating.

I have kept both hasbrosus and pygmaeus with cherry shimp. No problems... but I did notice that the shrimp where not breeding as quickly with out the cory's in there. The cory's may eat some of the really small cherries.

thank you both
I can deal with the cories eating some shrimp fry.
