Bolivian Rams, would they eat shrimp?

[RobGoldsmith]

I have seen some small shrimp in my LFS, I would put them at 3/4CM long each. I dont know their type etc. The woman said they are fine for community tanks.

Do you think my rams will eat them?
Any other info about them in a community tank?
Sorry dont know the type, they were clear though, no colour.

Yes, pretty much any of your fish will eat small shrimp. Unless they're ghost shrimp. Ghost shrimp are evil. I have two in my 55gal and even my 5" featherfin catfish gives them a wide berth. It'll be interesting to see what my male GBR tries to do with them when he goes into the 55gal.
