Uh...yes. More than if you had just one

Additional skunk not really going to make the other more or less social...

As long as you are adding a shrimp, why not make it a Blood Shrimp (Lysmata debelius) - and give yourself some diversity.



Equally available and not usually much different in price.

Skunk cleaner shrimp will go after anything from seaweed strips, to algae pellets, live or frozen plankton and mysis, freeze-dried mysis, small pellet food, and tropical flakes. They might eat any ich or other parasites off your fish. They will also scavenge the LR and sand looking for bits to eat.
