Coral Banded shrimp

[magooo2]

Will I be unsuccessful trying to introduce any other shrimp with my cbs??? Was looking to add cleaners ??? Or would they just be lunch. There approx 45 # of live rock which permits many places to hide and there is only one fish...A Clarkii clown. Or is my only option the removal of the cbs and start new??? Thanx

I'd like to know too. Here's a bump for ya.

It all depends on how big your shrimp are. If the cleaners are bigger than your cbs then they should be fine.

Taking the cbs out while the cleaners settle in and pick out their stations would be good. Then the cbs wont be so territorial when he enters the tank again.

I wanted to attach a pic of the cbs but it tells me my file is too large. O well ,I will have to work with that one. I kind of felt the cbs would get territorial and his actions have proven me correct in the past. I will try and remove him and then reintroduce at a later date. Thanks for input.

lets try this

My CBS gets along well with my Skunk Cleaner and the pepermints- They all have their territories, but dont mess with each other at all...

my pepermints stay hidden but i have bought a total of 6 and only seen them out of hiding once. I think they are missing but i dont know. The only thing that could reach them is my CBS.....

thats a nice cbs. When i was in hawaii, i caught my own...caught 2 and put them in my tank and they became a mated pair

How'd you get them home alive?

 

[viet-tin]

Just FYI, CBS like to eat bristle worms, and they probably might get to your smaller fish depending on how agressive it is.
