Harlequin Shrimp & Skunk Cleaner Shrimp.

[Jasonanatal]

I was curious to know if Harlequin Shrimp and Skunk Cleaner Shrimp could be housed in the same aquarium. I currently have the Harlequin Shrimp in my aquarium strictly for show but I would like to add two Skunk Cleaners in order to setup a cleaning station. Does anyone think there would be a problem? Thank you in advance.

Nope, I have almost every common shrimp in the same tank as my harlequin (even a coral banded shrimp) and there are never any problems, go for it.

I agree, there should be no problems. I currently have a pr of harlequins with my atlantic skunk cleaners and many other types of shrimp including a Stenopus pyrsonotus and they tend to ignore each other.
