How many Scarlet cleaner shrimp should I get get for my 75 gal tank?Can I keep Fire shrimp in the same tank?

yes you can mix cleaner and fire but so you know fire shrimp are a type of cleaner shrimp
i think 2 cleaner shrimp would be nice for that size tank

How many of each species of "Cleaner shrimp",both Scarlet,and Fire can I have If I keep them In the same tank?

depends on other inhabitants in the tank. How much will you be feeding. They are great scavengers and very opportunistic eaters.
Fire/Blood shrimp are ususally more shy than cleaners and won't chill in plain view.

I currently keep a pair of scarlets and several peppermints in a 55 display. They will move to the new 100 as soon as its ready and I plan to add a pair of fire...they should get along fine...I avoid coral banded though ... they can be problematic with other species of shrimp.:thinking:
