shrimp compatability


was wondering, besides the coral banded shrimp, which shrimp do not like being around each other. i was thinking of getting cleaner shrimp, but i already have a couple of peppermints. would they be fine together?

thanks,

G~

They should be just fine. I've never noticed any issues between the 2.

Hey G~! I think you will have no problems with peppermint and cleaner shrimp together at all! Coral Banded are the most aggressive of the lot by far! In fact I plan on getting a cleaner today to go in my tank along with four peppermints!

Sexy shrimp are very cute! I just got mine in from reeftopia yesterday. They've taken up residence in the green ricordia, which is great because that means they are right up in the front in plain sight...
