Adding a 2nd shrimp?

[celtic_Dude]

I am upgrading my 37 to a 90 this weekend and eventually will move my livestock to the new tank. I only have one cleaner shrimp at the moment and was wondering if it was a problem if I added a 2nd or even a 3rd one in the new tank? Also can I add other types of shrimp as well? Thanks

Adding additional cleaner shrimp will not be a problem at all. As for other shrimp, it depends. Most of them will not add to the bioload of the tank in any significant way. As long as they are not predator with regard to existing inhabitants, it should be no problem.

I have seen a couple of tanks here and there and love when there are a couple of shrimp wandering about. Seems to add something to the look of the tank.

i have 2 shrimp 1 cleaner who stays visable. then there is my blood shrimp who is hiding in the rock. the stronger of the two due to its larger claws is the blood. but the skunk keeps his distance.
