The shrimp would be incompatible with the shark, and depending on the type of barb and catfish, possibly those as well. Danios are usually too busy trying to create a mini-whirlpool to notice shrimp.

I've never given it some thought so I don't look at the prices, but they probably don't cost much more than feeder guppies. -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.
