I have a twenty nine gallon reef tank with a medium sized cleaner shrimp. I was thinking about adding another. Would this be problematic? How about other invertabres like a coral banded shrimp or an arrow crab. Any advice would be much appreciated.
 
yes , two cleaners can co-exist. and I would not put a CBS in with a cleaner for a 29g tank. The CBS are aggressive.
 
yes I have 2 cleaner shrimps best of pals. the new guy should
be just about the same size as the first. no bigger not to small.
that way no threat no victem. arrow crab and banded shrimp
are not so easy to keep long term. how about a martix crab?
 
in my 29G reef i right now have a very large CBS(biggest i personally have seen) along with a med to large cleaner shrimp and have had no problems.. the cleaner was very small when i added it to the tank with CBS at about the same size.. but yes two cleaners will be fine together..
