dtfleming Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Hi, just setup my 2gal and Im going to add a astrea snail, one or two pom pom crabs and a shrimp. My question is what kind of shrimp will be ok in the tank with rics and zooths. Im think of a fireshrimp or sexy shrimp, but I hear the sexy may eat the corals? Link to comment
srikamaraja Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I would be wary of placing anything with a boxing crab. Many of the corals and/or other invertebrates you have can be stung terribly by the anemones that host the crab. I would suggest a species tank if you are willing to care for a boxing crab.

triggerfreak Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I would put a trio of sexy shrimp in there, they won't mess with any of your corals. And your boxer crab will be fine too. I have a 3 gallon picotope with 2 boxers, 3 sexy shrimp and a watchman/pistol shrimp combo.I have zoos and a mushroom in there and other than getting covered up by the pistol nobody touches them.

dtfleming Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 K, tks for the info. I think I'll go with the sexy shrimp, boxing crab and astrea snail. I plan on put zoos and rics and maybe a feather duster. Link to comment
