Thanks Poncho,
Very few other fish to hassle him due to a run of bad luck lately (clearly continuing with this, although maybe the tide has turned and he'll live!) and he's got himself into a little cranny that the others wouldn't fit.
I've only got a couple of harmless corydoras, a couple of swordtails, bristlenose cats and a single featherfin cat in a 300L tank so I wouldn't imagine anyone would bother him even if they could get to him. The featherfin is the only one really capable of damage and it's too big to get near him in his little nook.
Water is good too (not many fish to muck it up right now) but water change is due, last one was about 10 days ago.

Well I guess no answers means nobody had anything constructive to say so by deduction there was nothing I could do that I hadn't already.
Surprisingly the little guy is still with us. Hope things remain this way but I wouldn't say he's out of the woods yet, and I haven't seen him eat since it happened.
Fingers still crossed here...

Rams are dwarf cichlids and very peaceful and shy. All of your tetras/rasboras should be safe. I've kept rams with neons, cardinals and bumblebee gobies and they didn't bother tham at all.
They do get territorial when breeding but the worst they do is chase the others away from their eggs, and then help themselves to their own eggs while protecting them, the silly duffers.
Why not move the shrimp into the larger tank so they live with the rams and little fish?

Sad news, he didn't make it after all. I fished his body out this evening.
