Camel shrimp ?

[mrme]

Who here has experience with Camel shrimp ?
Are they aggressive ?

Will they fight with other shrimps, such as pepperments and cleaners ?

I have a 60 gallon mixed reef, with two maroon clowns, a green spotted mandarin, 4 pepperment shrimp, a large brittle star,4 turbo snails,4 margarita snails,4 Tridacna clams, and various soft and hard corals.
My pepperment shrimp don't come out of the rocks much .
So i wanted to add some other kinds that maybe will...

Camel shrimp seem to be a little more outgoing, and colorful.
I just don't want any conflicts between shrimp, or other inverts.

The local LFS owner told me that they are known for eating coral, but I have no personal experience with them.

They are not reef safe. mine come out les than my peppermints.

Rhynchocinetes spp. shrimp are not reef safe, they will consume polyps/corals.

Yup, don't do it. I made this mistake.

Camel shrimp aren't even that nice IMO. Why not go for some blood shrimp!!! They are reef safe... but hide as well.
