Can neons and ghost shrimp live together in a 10 gallon tank?

As long as the shrimp have a safe place to molt (a tiny cave or something), I should think they would be fine. Will there be anything else in the tank besides the tetras and shrimp?

Hoping that there must be a word for everything I mean...

they will be just fine together, just make sure that you have some plants in the tank Amazingly I still have a ghost shrimp left out of a batch I bought over 3 years agoand he is still doing fine He's lived the whole time with guppies and neons...so i'd say go for it, and enjoy...heidi
