I've had luck with cherries, snowballs, and ammano shrimp with my discus. However, some of the discus make the cherries and snowballs into snacks. If I want an established colony of shrimp in a discus tank I put them in about a month prior to adding discus. To let them get established.

im thinking about trying to put them in the tank it seems like they would work because the shrimp wouldnt get eaten they get around 4inches
