i want to get my self a cleaner shrimp, but i dont want it to be a snack for my 6 linne wrasse. whats the best thing to do pick out a big one? also has anyone ever kept one with a 6 line?
 
Your odds are 50/50 with the six-line. I had one and it ate 3 cleaners on me and two were very large.
 
my six line and cleaner have been together for about 6 mos. now got the cleaner when he was small and the wrasse had been in there about 5 mos. already... never had one issue..
 
I had one till he died, don't know of what he died from tho. I don't have any wrasses 2 tangs a lil yellow tail damsel and scooter goby, did a pretty hefty water change and found him dead next day.... That would be my guess as of what could have happened to him... But my lion ate him so all in all I kept the circle of life going :)
