Advice on stocking

[nightmarepl]

Looking to buy a few critters for my reef it’s about 2 years now, attempted to have shrimp about 2 now and both randomly died always stayed on the top or under my wave maker. No idea why people told me it’s most likely my yellow dottyback killing them or harassing till they die not sure… but i removed the dottyback and was thinking on getting 2 cleaner shrimp and a coral banded shrimp maybe two if possible rhe tank is 80 gallons plus 35gallon sump

Eventually a pistol shrimp or two maybe

No. Sorry. I just asked because I know for people to give advice on what to add, they need to know what you already have.

Start running ............ TANG police are on route to your location as we speak.......

Did the shrimp that died appear to have been attacked or just died for unknown reasons?
