Re Blood shrimps

[i_am_blokeman]

Hi Everyone!!
I would like to know if I am able to put 1 or 2 Bllod shrimps in my tank when I already have a Coral banded shrimp?? Will my CBS kill them?/

Many Thanks
Kim

what size tank do you have?
cbs usually will fight with other shrimp and probally win but u might be able to get away with safely housing the blood shrimp if your tank is large enough
most people dont keep cbs due to their aggresiveness

I wouldnt trust a cbs with them, ive seen cbs do some insane things.

I got a fire/blood shrimp, two cleaners and a coral banded in a 6o and they all get along. The other shrimp will stay out of the CBS path, but overall there O.K..

I have a CB and a blood shrimp in my 65.. just as cloak says the blood shrimp will avoid the CB but there has been little sign of agression. I plan on adding another blood shrimp in the near future. IMO your tank would just have to be moderately large in order to accomodate both, above 50 gallons or so and lots of rock.
