ghost shrimp?

[el aguila]

Are ghost shrimp compatible with mysis and copepods in a refugium? or will they eat them or be in competition with one another?

Would I be better off just sticking with mysis, gamarus, and copepods in a large refugium for a reef tank?

gammarids and mysids both are highly predatory/cannibalistic, which is why their populations tend to change in favor of one or the other.

i imagine if they can catch them, ghosties would eat either of them if they can catch them, but if you feed them well, they tend to prefer the EZ meals. they'll ALWAYS eat live brine, they love them.
