Hey folks. I just received my fire shrimp and cleaner shrimp from Fed-Ex. They are small. Very small. Each about 3/4” or slightly less. My concern is my 4ish” Melananarus wrasse and to a lesser degree my Mystery Wrasse. I’m almost certain they will be eaten.
I think I may have to put them in the sump and hope for the best. I’d throw them in the QT tank, but it has copper in it. Any thoughts or ideas?
 
Definitely don’t add them anywhere copper has been!

If you’re sump as a safe refugium for them to live in might be best to let them grow out!
