Will a possum wrasse eat small pistol shrimp?

[Chrisv.]

I'm building out a tank with pair of candy striped pistol shrimp and a small goby and I'm considering adding a possum wrasse to keep the creepy crawlies at bay.

However, the pistol shrimp and goby symbiosis is the entire point of the tank.

How big of a threat does the hive mind think a possum wrasse would be to small shrimp?

No threat at all. Very peaceful, with other fish, will not bother your shrimp.

That’s great! I’ve made the mistake of adding a mystery wrasse to a tank with shrimp in the past…talk about an expensive snack.
