Hi all,

What fish have you kept with ornamental inverts successfully?

Things along the lines of sexy shrimp, pedersons, holthuisi, anemone shrimps, emperor shrimps, yellow line shrimp, donald duck shrimp, squat lobsters. Anything beyond the usual cuc we keep, and may be considered 'bite size'. Doesn't seem to be a whole lot of info on what leaves these lovely inhabitants alone :)

Thank you!

My current tank is a nano, however I have rough plans to upgrade to a 4/5ft tank within a years time. Trying to plan ahead on stock, and what can mix with smaller inverts. Assuming most tangs are ruled out as well as dwarf angels. Thinking possibly a group of assessors, lots of gobies, the clowns and blenny I currently have. I'm also thinking a group of the smaller cardinals.

Tangs won't mess with shrimp and either will angels. I was just going off nano tank.

It seems to be only invert focused nano tanks that I can find online, doesn't seem to be many bigger tanks with smaller inverts so I'm not sure what 'bigger' fish are compatible lol!

Thanks for your help.
