I have a 29 and want some shrimp. I like the cleaners and peppermints. How many of each could I have in there? Two of each? One of each? One cleaner and three peppermint?
 
I have in my 29 gal a pr of atlantic cleaners, pr hawaiian harlequins, pr of Stenopus pyrsonotus (ghost or fountain shrimp) pr of bumble bee shrimp and assorted anemone shrimp. My tank is mostly shrimp and hermit crabs, I have only a few fish in this tank.
 
They are very shy, in fact I forgot I had them until I move the tank from a 6gal nano to the 29 they are in now. When I moved all the rock and sand I found the pr. Here is a photo of right after I collected them.

They are very territorial so only add one or if they are a pr keep them together.
