Sexy shrimp may be small but IMHO they are quite hardy little critters. I have 8 of them in a 30 gal cube along with a pair of clowns, a bi color blenny, a chalk basslet 2 peppermint and 2 skunk cleaners and an emeral crab and have never had any problems.

I have had the same three sexy shrimp for 6months. They do really well I never feed them. They are very happy on a carpet anemone.
