Killer skunk cleaner shrimp

[Goby-won]

I guess I have the meanest cleaner shrimp of all. A few weeks back I noticed a couple of small aptasia growing so I got a peppermint shrimp to take care of it. I saw him for two days and gone. Man that sucks I thought. Bought a couple more tonight and put them right on the rock to take care of the issue. I turned around to dump the water and there was my cleaner shrimp on them both like a ninja. Now I think I know what happened to my other peppermint shrimp.

Makes me wonder....can peppermint & cleaner shrimp live in harmony?

Yes they can...
Only if one is injured other will eat

I have 3 of each with no problems, the peppermint shrimp hides in the rocks most of the time and I hardly ever see them but I know where they hide.
