Yes and no. I have 4 ghost shrimp with my betta, because he doesn't bother them. I had lots of ghost shrimp (20 plus) in my 10g quarantine, to help clean up and as feeder shrimp for my tire track eel. My 20g has a tire track eel in it, so any shrimp that go in there disappear in (usually) less than 24 hours.
I've now slowly transferred all the ghost shrimp from my 10g to my 20g (my eel has loved this), because my german rams in the 10g are spawning for a second time. The shrimp like to eat the eggs/wrigglers if they can get them.

The biggest concern for keeping shrimp is to make sure none of the fish in the tank will eat them. If it is a shrimp only tank, then that isn't a concern.

The only downside I have, is that no matter how many shrimp I put in my 20g, my tire track eel will eat EVERY SINGLE ONE! He's one heck of a glutton. That's why I had the ghost shrimp stocked in my quarantine tank, so I could add them one or two at a time for snacks.
