Berghia with Skunk Cleaner and Fire Shrimp?

[Tft12]

I've read that Berghia tend to be eaten by Peppermint Shrimp. I don't have any Peppermint Shrimp but I have 3 Skunk Cleaner Shrimp (Lysmata amboinensis) and 2 Fire Shrimp (Lysmata debelius). Are these likely to cause trouble for a Berghia population?

IMO I wouldn’t do it

I have both in my tank and the Berghia were still able to eradicate the Aptasia in 3 months time. Since Peppermint eat the Aptasia it would make sense that they would also eat the Berghia. Instead of the shrimp I was more concerned of some of my fish in the tank eating the Berghia. Put a total of 16 Berghia in my tank and saw a few of them a week later but never again after that, the Aptasia was gone within 3 months.

Thanks. That’s what I was hoping to hear.
