ANybody got e same exprience??? based your encounters with your cleaners, most probably the small and big couple should be a male and a female, and has paired up. So, naturally an "xtra" shrimp would cause 'chaos' so IMO, just leave your tank with the pair. if you want to add more shrimps, maybe try other species Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
