coral banded with cleaneR?

[supernareg]

my coral banded is my 12 gal... i want to put him in the 30 gal that houses a sexy shrimp and a cleaner shrimp... the CBS is very shy... its always hiding until lights out, when i go look at it it goes and hides. it was with my horses... didnt bother them AT ALL. will it bother my cleaner and sexy in the 30 gal?

I've done a lot of reading on this and all points to the conclusion that your other shrimp would be good snacks for the CBS. That's based on reading and research but not experience so you can try it and let us know.

I had a cb and a cleaner in my 65g reef for 2 years, so it is possible
I am guessing it comes down to territory they pretty much just split the tank into my side your side...lol
If it doesnt work at least they arent the most pricey livestock in the lfs.
I did catch my cb trying to eat fish though grabbbin fins and gettin dragged around the tank till he fell off, thats when he had to go.

Not me! Wish my cleaners and fire shrimps were that lucky. I guess hit and miss
