Sexy Shrimp

Just a couple of questions on these guys.

I am thinking about putting a small group of them in my Biocube, which has a Pearly Jawfish right now. THe other fish I am planning will be smaller than the Jawfish, so I am wondering if the small size of these guys will put them into the jawfishes food range?

I am also wondering if there are any other special considerations I should know about other than making sure there is plenty of iodine in the tank. Also is it hard to feed them as they are so small?

There should be no problem with your jawfish and the shrimp. And just to reassure you on this, I have a group of two in a 46 gallon with
-a large verocious coral banded shrimp
-a diamond watchman goby that could swallow them whole
-And aggressive fish that want to hide in the coral they are hosting
-And aggressive territorial shrimp

So no problem with a jawfish, it would be ideal though to keep them with a host, mine like my leather tree coral, and my frogspawn but won't go in an anemone if its already hosted by clowns, but will definitely be great in an anemone.

I found it hard to feed them since they are in such a busy tank with lots of water motion and crazy territorial fish and shrimp. I had to make a feeder that I could put mysid in so they could eat, but they still get plenty of food from the rocks, but I would add pellets or something if your tank isn't that busy or make a feeder like me.
