coral banded shrimp

[craigtaylor]

Have any of you guys/gals had an aggressive coral banded shrimp. I have got one that keeps going after all my other livestock-regal tang, clowns, chromis, coral beauty and anything he can get his claws on. He is fed every other day so I dont think its cause he is hungry. What gives?

Maybe he thinks it's in the UFC!!!

I heard they can be quite aggressive, but I have one with a skunk cleaner and 3 pepermint shrimp and everyone gets along fine.

I had one that used to grab fish by the tail any chance it got. Im not sure if it got eaten or what but it disappeared after awhile never to return. I rememeber one day looking in the tank and it was latched on to a 6" naso tang going for a ride.

Now that would make a great video!

I think mine is the most evil creature on the earth...........he actually yanked a hermit crab out of the shell and ate him. I tried to save the HC, but the CBS wouldnt let it go..........Evil, evil, evil.

Hrmm I have a pair with a pair of cleaners, and they do fine together, they get a little testy from time to time, but overall doing ok.

Except for the time when one of the CBS pinched the bicolor blenny.

I had a pair of CB's and they killed 3 cleaner shrimp in one night. Expensive sank to say the least. They have since left!
