Thanks everyone for the advice. I love this place! I will not get one. Would a coral banded shrimp be better?


Thanks,
Monica

I personally like fire shirmp. I have a pair and they are very cool together.

[Monica25]

Do they look nice under moonlights?

[danvan75]

sorry i wouldn't know, i dont have moonlights, but i would assume they would because they have white legs and white dots on the tops of their bodies.

[Monica25]

They can be expensive I have noticed. Where did you get yours?

[Scream311]

Coral Banded aka Boxing Shrimps are Full of Personality ! I've also got one of those in my reef and he loves hanging around Rock Work with Arms stretched Full Out Eating what comes his way

[Monica25]

Awesome I like them, but will they kill percula clowns or fire fish?

[hobogato]

the one i had was safe with fish, but not other shrimp.

Supposedly when they get big, they could potentially hurt fish and other inverts. Ours got big and used to lunge at fish as they went by. He never caught any, so maybe it was just wishful thinking- "if only I could catch that fish."

Anyway, have heard of them not getting along with other shrimp. Not very sociable...

mine killed my horseshoe crab. He does look very cool though....
