I've known a large banggai that gulped down a decent sized skunk cleaner shrimp, and a good number of flames that committed similar crimes, but I wanted to get everyone at RC's experiences with mixing cardinals with small fish (neon gobies, assessors, firefish etc.), and shrimp. I know that longspines (Z. leptacantha) and red dots are 2 of the safer and more readily available cardinals, since they eat mainly out of the water column, but I love the look of ochrestriped cardinals (Ostorhinchus compressus), with their big blue eyes, and reddish stripes. What has your experience with with cardinals, and do you think I'd be safe adding 1-2 ochrestriped cardinals to my 60g cube with neon gobies, assessors, fang blennies etc.? Thanks guys :dance:
