Issues with bicolor and shrimp?

[FlyGTI]

Normally, I'd use the magic search button and do some checking on this, but I wanted to poll the locals first.

I've got a 12g with a female bicolor blenny and a citron goby. They get along great together, and I'm starting to consider some options for shrimp, namely a cleaner, a fire, or a peppermint, or perhaps a combination of the two.

Anyone had any issues with bicolors and shrimp getting along? I had a male bicolor once that might have been guilty of beating the crap out of a well-meaning cleaner, and I'm somewhat leary of adding one. I'd probably be more apt to take the plunge if I had a few of you local experts could reassure me.

I had one with 2 cleaner shrimp & a peppermint for a few months with no problems but I took him back just in case.

My bi-color is in with 7 shrimp and zero problems. I love my bi-color .

I assume if you are going to search, you should do so in the nano forum. There may be cases were they are fine in a larger tank but not in a nano.

I love my bicolor too. One of the girls in the Youth Group I work with named her Petunia, to go along with Rosey, the yellow citron goby.

Thanks for the heads up Marcus. You premium members have it all too easy!
