Gouldian Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Hi bro, I have 1 AT with 2 cleaner and 2 blood shrimps, never seen it attacking shrimps before even went I add the shrimp after the AT. I have however seen a YT attacking cleaner shrimp in a friend's tank but it is now well behaved in my tank. Not sure why.

SRC Member Bubber Posted November 12, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted November 12, 2007 Same here, all my AT did was to pester the cleaner shrimps to remove the parasites from its body..nvm see any form of aggression at all.. Actually I'm more worried that your PBT will attack the new AT since they belong to the same family..hard for the AT to settle in with such aggressor around.. Juz my 2 cents, hope that helps!

SRC Member mopiko Posted November 12, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted November 12, 2007 hi dude think like humans. sometimes it do really depend on luck if the fish will be "guai". every fish will behave differently is every tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member reeftask Posted November 12, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted November 12, 2007 I have a yellow tang about double sized of the sailfin tang. When first day introduced the new sailfin, this sailfin keeps following the yellow tang. The yellow tang just wave its tail to tell this new guy back off. They share the same LR home since that first night and live in harmony. That same home is at below the Overflow which has 5 fishes and one peppermint sharing, LOL. The other peppermint is sharing with some other fishes, too. Sometimes fishes will hide or sleep at the branches of frogspawn with my perculas. I only curious where is my purple and golden coral banded shrimps sleeps. Seldom see them anymore but only sometimes see both peppermint come out at night or feeding time.
