i have a blood shrimp with my cleaners and corals, no problem, shouldn't be one with peppermint shrimp, they are semi- aggresive though so be careful | |

I've heard of a mantis being added to a tank with two pistols and the pistols shocked it to death with the loud sound they make. They're not very aggressive but stuff like that can happen. | |

Hey everyone,
We've got four peppermints, two skunk cleaners, and at least two pistols in our tank. All are doing great. There is the occasional territorial/food dispute between the peppermints and the larger skunks though, but no harm done.
BTW, we're seeing the pistols more commonly now as the tank matures and settles in. They're very pretty!
