Anybody have experience keeping pairs of shrimp in smaller tanks?
So given that skunk cleaners and fire shrimp are hermaphroditic and form pairs, I was wondering if a pair of each (4 total) would be ok in a 32g (biocube)? I currently have 1 of each, but they're quite small still and have only been there for a couple weeks. Would adding 1 more of each be too much for the tank? The 2 I currently have occupy opposite sides of the tank and basically don't interact with each other at all.
If that doesn't work, what about 1 fire shrimp and a pair of cleaners?
If it helps, I don't plan on adding other shrimp, so it's just a matter of 2, 3 or 4 fire/cleaner shrimp.
