I have two clownfish ans various hermits and snails in a 32 gallon biocube. I have soft, LPS, and zoa corals. Would a cleaner shrimp be ok in here or will they turn on corals sometimes? I’m specifically looking at skunk shrimp.
 

Just a Wrasse.

The biggest wrasse fan.

It's 50/50, some will some won't. I reccomend you find an LFS that will accept exchanges, most stores should.

Mine have never "attacked" coral but sometimes would try to steal food from LPS or crawl over them looking for food, which can irritate them. Otherwise I never had any real issues with them.

I'm no expert. This is just my experiences. :)

I’ve got one close that will was just wondering if they’d start eating my Zoa. Basically the only thing they can harm in the tank.
