Anyone here is familiar with these shrimp? Will they eat the tiny brittle stars in the tank?
 
They are impossibly small. Like, less than 1/4”. Smaller than sexy shrimp. I bought two several years ago and put them in the tank and never saw them again.
Thanks for the reply I love my brittle stars they are part of my clean up crew and I don't want anything to decimate them.
 
Yes they will. They are tiny. I have a pair that have been in my tank for about six months. Just when I think they’re gone, I catch a glimpse of one. They are adorable but beware of larger fish that like to harass little crustaceans.
 
Ok I'll stay away from them then
