Is it true that i cant add any other shrimp in my tank if i have one of these fellows?

I'm pretty sure. It's a shame since they're so pretty.

yea =[

coral banded are quite agressive...

so getting a fire shrimp is a no go since i already have a CBS?

How big is the tank? If the coral banded shrimp kills the fire shrimp, it gets some food. If your tank is pretty big I guess you could give it a try

its a 55g but not a 55g long.

They are mean pos.I tried putting a pep in tank with a cbs and it was a instant fight.I had to catch the cbs and get rid of it.I dont even know why they sell them.

the only shrimp that a u can put with a cbs is a cbs of the apposite sex. best if bought in pairs though. unless u know how to sex them

damn,i might have to return him to the LFS. Does the CBS still clean stuff or is it manly just for show?

dont know man, in the long run you dont want that thing
