Cleaner shrimp and Peppermint shrimp

[JMalone81]

Can they go in the same tank together?I am not sure if the cleaner shrimp will kill the peppermints.

if its a 40gallon or larger, nothing to worry about. if not, if you have the skunk cleaner first, make sure the peppermint shrimp are larger than the cleaner once introduced. if you have a big skunk cleaner in a small tank, i dont think the peppermints will make it, maybe 1 maybe live out of a group but he will kill most.

I have a 125.Do the peppermint still have to be larger?I already have a cleaner in the tank and it is kinda big.I wanted to add a few peppermints to get rid of some aptaisas.

Ok, I have a 29g biocube with a skunk cleaner, blood cleaner, two sexys, and two pepps that are only bigger than the sexys and everything is fine and dandy. Has been ever since the beginning but I also used to have, included with the current shrimp, a venustus anemone shrimp and a randalls pistol shrimp as well.
