Can 2 ft tank hold 2 banded shrimps ? I thought they will fight until one dies...

If so, I am tempted to get another banded to keep the existing one company..

still never see they fight yet.. very peaceful.. but my fren have a 4ft.. 2 boxer inside.. was told the bigger (pregnant) boxer snip off both pincer of the other smaller boxer.. maybe guarding egg
