I have 2 cleaners and a fire shrimp in my 46, never had any problems. I keep them pretty well fed also.

its a 30 gallon...I dont think I should a problem though. I added more rock to for hidding spaces...so I should be good. I only asked because when they first met eachother....it didnt look like it was going to go so well. I have been watching for the past 3 hours or so, and all is calm!

They should be perfectly fine together.

everyone is STILL alive and doing well it seems. I did add WAY more rock, so everyone could have a hidding spot. I redid all of the rock work too so there would be no terratorial issues

they'll be ok as lone as they have some space (even then sometimes they don't need any), you keep them fed, and they're about the same size. If those variables change you could have problems but most times they live happily together.
