Had a coral banded and cleaner all in a 72g bow. They all played nice Coral banded did make a clear set boundary for all the other cleaner shrimp. Guess I had the right amount of space per individual! Good luck

I have the same shrimp in my tank for a while .two coral banded shrimp mated pair two cleaners a fire.shrimp peppermint shrimp and harlequin shrimp. I have had all of these guys together on a 210 & previously a 75 coral banded were more aggressive in the 75 now in the 210 they all ignore each other.

I have one Skunk Cleaner, 5 Sexy Shrimp and a Pom Pom Crab and everyone plays nicely. I love watching my cleaner mount my fish and pick at them. My anthias let's it ride as long as it wants and even let's it dig in it's mouth. The first time I I saw that I nearly peed on myself.

No, I'm not a communist..
I have one with a cleaner and a fire in my 90. However, I would never get another one. Besides hiding in the back of the tank behind the rocks, he is always trying to catch and kill my fish. I've seen him do it. Any time a fish gets anywhere near him he tries to catch the fish with his claws. I'm also convinced he killed my previous purple firefish while he slept.

My coral banded shrimp just killed my purple pseudochromis and has been banished to the fuge.

:-( Sorry to hear. Do you want another coral banded that is a model citizen? Ive been thinking about getting rid of mine, not that he's trouble, but he hardly ever comes out of my rockwork since I re-scaped it more like a cave to place all the nems around. If I want a shrimp I never see, ill buy more peppermints...

Sorry to hear that! I hate mine and wish I could catch him.

Nah I think him and the scarlett skunk and my new pistol shrimp were kind of overkill in my tank anyway so for now he's in the fuge until I decide if I want to sell him give him away or what. I was just shocked because he never bothers my clowns at all.

Yeah I've never even seen him get aggressive towards anything in my tank and then all of the sudden he kills my brand new purple pseudo what gives? Into the fuge you go.
