Adult RCS can be ok with smaller fish species, especially if they have places to hide; babies will get picked off, but how many/how often might depend on how much plant cover there is to hide in, and how well fed the fish are.
oh the one thats eating the carcass if ghost shrimp not very friendly to fish as they get up to 2 inch or bigger i've heard up to 4 ". i take out the ghost and feed them to my arowana or flowerhorn and replace them with smaller ghosts or rcs.the rcs are very wonderful addition to a community tank as they are hardworking and do not bother the other fishes including my guppies.yes they all live in the same tank my 104 gallon.this is the link to the tank http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/freshwater-fish-pictures-videos/104-gallon-finnaly-done-47517/ you can see theres a lot of other fish in there =)
almost a month 3 weeks and 2 days i think.no problems so far.have 3 guppy fry's and rcs babbies and anothe preggy female rcs in here so i think the tanks healthy and he fish and shrimp are happy=)
I too like the Raphael catfish and currently have a Spotted raphael = less shrimp,snails,guppies,and neons.
They will consume all.
The one I keep has no trouble thinning out the guppy population I have.
