Suggestions Needed!

I'm looking to get another shrimp or crab for my 30g tanks. I have a bunch of snails and 1 cleaner shrimp. Also 2 clowns.

What would go well with the cleaner shrimp- either crab or another shrimp... or should I get another cleaner?

I do like "Shrimpy".. but he needs a friend!

Also- nothing nocturnal
Any suggestions would be great!

Theres no such critter as a shrimp or crab that's not mostly nocturnal.

Get another Cleaner shrimp.


And please do not post duplicate threads in different forums.

I'm a big fan of porcelain anemone crabs. The one i had was sooo neat to watch when he was eating, and he had a ton of personality. Much more sedate than my new cleaner shrimp. Jaques zooms all over my 90 like he has a jet pack attached. The crab would just pick a spot and put out his little fans, scooping treats out of the water column as they floated by......

How about an emerald crab?

I bought a 2nd cleaner shrimp and I really like watching the two interact with each other. It's like the older more experienced shrimp teaches the younger, smaller shrimp "the ropes". Definitely worth spending the money to get a second one.
