MrHandkerchief Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Hi everyone! I like the coral banded shrimp alot and would like to keep one, However, there is a small 1.5inch grey mantis shrimp in one of my rocks. I have two options:1) Do a bottle trap and get rid of that irritating stomatopod.2) Go ahead with the Coral banded Shrimp and hope that these two can co-exist together.Which is a better option? Need some two-cents here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Option 2 because Coral Band is a boxer shrimp there's a chance he will win the fight. (imo) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member shy88devil Posted October 21, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted October 21, 2015 If possible better to catch the mantis out. You never know maybe the boxer will lose the fight hahaha. Maybe you can buy a lot bigger size ones instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member digibee Posted October 21, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted October 21, 2015 Don't think they can co-exist together. Mantis shrimp will sure win and eat up the banded shrimp. Quote () Happy will do ... (o_o) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member tuajia Posted October 21, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted October 21, 2015 I dunno, my coral banded shrimp gets bullied even by my cleaner shrimp...
