Coral banded and cleaner shrimp

Back from the dead so to speak- I added a coral banded shrimp to a tank months ago and never saw it again- then added a cleaner shrimp a month ago- the banded shrimp just came out of hiding- will having both in a forty g be a problem

Wait and see. Hopefully the cleaner is the same size or bigger. They can coexist but it's cautioned against.

I'd think so, been in the same tank for a while-the cleaner is now just roaming the whole tank- the banded just showed up at the same area but there was no 'trouble'- just hope I don't have to take the tank apart for a dispute among shrimp LOL

I have both in an 80g and the CBS roams the tank at night. Cleaner us mire active during the day.
