What is a small shrimp???

[Tuton]

I was looking at adding a Harlequin Basslet to my 55 gallon mixed reef tank but some of the literature I have read said it might not be safe with smaller shrimp. So what is a smaller shrimp? I currently have a skunk cleaner shrimp and was planning on adding other cleaner shrimps as well as a pair of dwarf coral banded shrimps. I was thinking that what they ment by a small shrimp as anemone, Snapping, or Harlequin shrimps, the ones that stay less than 1 1/2inches in size. I am assuming that the shrimp in my tank are large enough not to be made a meal of. Anyone have any experiance with this fish and is it safe with my shrimps???

when I looked it up in LA.. it states "any small fish or crustacean"

if it were my tank.. I would bypass...

I personally have no experience with this bass.. hopefully someone that owns one will give you some advice
Good Luck!!!

Small shrimp would be sexy shrimp, anemone shrimp, and some pistol shrimp. If it says fish & shrimp, I'd pass if I had small fish and any shrimp.
