Ycg is yellow clown goby and the picture was showin my coral banded shrimp half way done with the ycg but thanks budToo many acronyms, Idk what you're talking about when you say YCG, I also have no clue what you're pictures are pointing at... but Coral Banded Shrimp are crazy aggressive, and will eat anything they can catch.
If you don't see it in other reefers tanks -- there's a reason. If you're new to the hobby NEVER get something you don't see other people routinely keep. THat's a recipe for disaster. The CBS will kill everything it can in your tank, from other shrimp, to smaller crabs, and smaller fish.

Made the same mistake when I started.coral banded shrimp will eat sleeping small fish not fish bigger than it.mine caught every fish in my tank from lawnmower Blenny to clown to small puffer in first three days in my tank.I caught him at lights out dragging them sleeping by their tails to his den to eat them and stopped each time and got lucky no injuries and banned him to frag tank and sucks cuz can't have small fish in frag tank now lol
Will do trust me but quick question its ok to house him in my sump?also will my skimmer or pump wont suck him i also have a demsel fighting everybody like if he runs the tank crazy lol its stressful seeing them fightingAh, haven't heard that one and couldn't see what was going on.. Now that you say it, it's clear as day -_-
Either way. Coral Banded Shrimp are the devil. If they got big enough they would eat every organism in your tank. Get rid of it. If you don't see it in other reefers tanks, don't buy it. That sounds silly, but with as many reefer's as we have in the hobby... If you don't see other people keeping it, there's usually a *very* good reason!
Keep asking questions, banish that shrimp to the sump or give him to someone who can house him.
Yea it sucks plus im really getting into to this and when you ask your lsf they be like yes its fine or yea ypu could have a pair of yellow clown goby. Just to get your money but thanks to yall im informing meI'd be so heart broken if I saw that. I such a freakin softy for animals :/
