Ive had a coral banded shrimp for a couple years in a JBJ 45. He's been a model citizen as far as im concerned. I was ordering a CUC at reef cleaners and see they have decorator crabs. Would I likely have issues if I put them both in this sized tank or should I be okay?

I haven't heard anything negative about them but like with most crabs it can be a crapshoot. Do you have a specific type of CBS? Some are meaner than others.

I have an orange one. He’s pretty big now - at least a few inches. Way bigger than any of my fish.
