anyone have any success with adding either a cleaner or a coral banded shrimp to their FOWLR tanks, specifically those with dwarf lions?
my only fish inhabitants are a fuzzy dwarf and a lawnmower blenny. i am contemplating the next fish i will add this weekend (can't decide between the metalic foxface, dwarf angel, butterfly fish, or sailfin tang) and was thinking a cleaner or coral banded shrimp would make a good addition too, but i don't want a shrimp to be instant food for mr/mrs. lion...

what are other FOWLR keepers' thoughts on shrimp?

thanks a bunch.

I say avoid the shrimp it will become food and if the shrimp is to large now for the lion the lion will quickly grow. Save your money and don't add the shrimp.

thanks, kaye. i was wondering when you'd reply :)

i'll go shrimpless...just thought it would be cool to have something other than the snails and crabs to help clean up after morti (the lion fish) and julio (blenny fish).
