Can blood red fire shrimp and pepermint shrimp be in the same tank together? I was thinking about getting a couple for my 200g reef?

I am not speaking from experience, but I would think they would be ok together based on what I have read.

Especially in a large tank.

it's fine - my old 55 had a blood shrimp and a bunch of pepps.

the only shrimp that i've heard via the boards being a potential risk is the cbs.

In a tank that size make sure you go with a pair of the fires. They can be very reclusive and would probably be lost in a tank that size if you have just one. They are more likley to be out and about if you have the pair. I have a pair in a 20g with a pair of cleners, and while they dominate over the cleaners, they don't attack them.
