Too Many Cherry Shrimp?

[bigmamabird]

We've had our Axie for over a year now. When we got him we bought ten Cherry Shrimp as well. Two disappeared immediately but the remaining eight settled in and started breeding. He isn't interested in eating them (even when they sit on his face) and they've established quite a colony. I'm starting to think there are too many in there!

Can they hurt him? Should I give some away or will the population stabilize on its own?

You could sell them. The average price is $25 for 10 cherry shrimp on ebay.
