So I hope to be setting up a small tank right under 20 gal. to focus on RFA and mini max
I would like a few other inverts as well would this stock list be OK?
4X sexy shrimp
2x pom pom crab
1x anemone crab
1x anemone shrimp
1x fire shrimp
a few feather dusters

with 2-3 small fish.

I worry about the sexy and fire shrimp.
thoughts? compatible or are they going to kill each other?
 
Should be fine, I have kept them with fire/cleaners before... the cleaners seem to like to harass things more while my fire shrimp liked to just hang upside down all day. The cleaner could never catch a sexy shrimp anyways.

My pom pom crab was an butt though and would pounce on my pistol shrimp and small fish. Thankfully he had no pom poms. Some anemone shrimp are much smaller than sexy's.
 
@Tamberav oh that is good news I can keep the sexies along with a blood.

do you think a pom pom crag can kill or injure fish? I have never had them in all these years of reefing. all this small stuff is new to me :D
 
got the tank up and running about 20 RFA in there not its time to add some other stuff.

thoughts on this list for compatibility.

a heard of sexy shrimp 4-6 -would love more if I can find a good deal.
2X porcelain crabs one blue and one white
1X blood red fire shrimp
1X glass nem shrimp- on the fence about this one
3x feather dusters
1X scarlet hermit crab
2x blue leg hermit crabs
normal CUC for small nano

lot more RFAs and a few mini max nems I want to make sure the mini max will not eat the shrimp. and all inverts get along.

any feed back?
