Nice zoos. What kind of crab is that big one?
I can't wait till I start adding corals in my tank. I want zoos bad.

Those are very nice zoo frags!!

Nice Coral Banded Shrimp, too. (I read that CB shrimp are prone to nip at stony corals. Is that true? I still new in this hobby and have learned that what you read in books may sometimes be more suggestion than fact.)

Keep an eye on the CBS. Mine has eaten 2 cleaner shrimp and a couple of fish. He regularly tries to catch my false percs but they're a little too fast for him.

CBS do come with a warning that they might attack other inverts. They can be very territorial but should be ok to house together in a big tank. My CBS is small and stays in it's cave until a fish stops at the entrance and he will come out and clean. I did not know he did this until I restructured my rocks and can now see the cave better.
BTW, very nice zoos

He is the only shrimp I have.Ive had it for about 8 months and he never has ate a fish yet.I hope it dont start.

So a CBS can protect itself. Could it get the respect of a niger trigger or a snowflake eel or is that just crazy?
