I bought a peppermint shrimp for my tank 3 weeks ago. The second day my wife thought she ground it up when the wave pumps turned on after feeding the fish in the morning. Today I ran out and got a couple more snails and a scarlet skunk shrimp caught my eye. So I bought it and put in the tank. This afternoon while changing my filter mat in the sump, guess what I found? yep, the peppermint shrimp. Fully alive and doing quite well give he has been stuck to a filter mat in the sump for 3 weeks. So i threw him back in the tank. My tank is a newly started tank(60days) 125 gal with live rock, snails, crabs, fish(chromis, tang, gramma).

Will there be issues between the shrimp or can they live together in the tank??

Thanks in advance for the help.
