Shrimp/crab compatibability in Trimma tank

[trimma0426]

I am currently cycling my tank which will be a predominantly Trimma/Eviota sp. goby tank.

I am trying to make an invert list, and wondering if you guys see any compatibility issues with the fish, since they are mainly perchers and not swimmers

Pom Pom crabs
Sexy shrimp
Bumble bee shrimp
Orange spot anemone shrimp
Squat lobster

Thank you

How big is the tank? I don't think there will be issues between the inverts and fish but you may have problems between fish species or invert species, the bumblebee shrimp and orange spots are both Gnathophyllum and in close quarters they may fight.

It's a 20 gallon IM Fusion. I have a 20 gallon refugium I guess I could throw any problem inverts into.

Ok you should be fine at that size but I definitely don't recommend adding many more inverts than that cause it'll start getting crammed. The ones you want are generally peaceful.

Thanks. I was thinking 3 sexy shrimp, 2-3 bumble bee or orange spot shrimps and maybe 1-2 Pom Pom crabs

Yeah if you go the route of having only orange spots OR bumble bees you'll be fine in that regard and the other numbers look safe to me. Sounds like a cool little tank concept. I too am a huge fan of trimmas, eviotas, and nano inverts.
