I have 7 pineapple swordtail tetras and 2 corys in my fish tank right now and I just ordered some cherry shrimp. Are the tetras and the corys going to eat them? If so, what kind of fish wouldn't eat them?

Spartygal Aw, that stinks! :( I remember I used to have an old travel record player that snapped up like a suitcase. It was red on the bottom and red and white striped on the top....I played that thing til it died! That's neat though that you still have them!
