My 38 gallon aquarium is in need of some inverts. Would cherry shrimp be O.K. with a male and female pearl gourami? The gouramis are about 2.5 inches long now, but im pretty sure they will grow.

shrimp are generally okay with most fish, but as the gouramis get bigger they may become a snack! luckily, i don't think cherry shrimp are very expensive, so it wouldn't be an issue if you wanted to get some to test it out!

"Expensive" is in the account of the debit-card holder... Out of all the little buddies I have, my cherry shrimp were the most expensive ($3/pop).

I would get the tank back in shape before adding anything...getting the test kit and seeing if your cycle was killed off from ICH meds is the first thing so that the remaining fish can survive ..inverts will die with any meds in the tank and its still got some because it was so recent of an event
