Default Shrimp Question

I doubt it, they were together for about a year with no issues.

The CB is fine with the peppermint as he was with the cleaner.

I wonder if that peppermint was crossed breed with a mantis....lol.

The coral banded probably killed the cleaner shrimp.

Peppermint shrimp and cleaner shrimp go well together.

I had a Cleaner and a Coral Banded getting along fine for a long time,

then
added the peppermint and suddenly the cleaner Shrimp disappeared. Now
there's only the CB and the Minty one in the tank.

I never found any traces of the cleaner, I was thinking maybe a fish is
responsible for the lost but I had the same stock for a while with no
problems.

As far as I know they all get along but watch for the Coral Banded,
especially if you don't have a big tank. They are very territorial.

Good luck !

Are shrimp, usually compatible with other shrimps?
I have a Peppermint and was thinking of getting another breed..
