sexy shrimp

I have a 29 gal reef tank with a dragon goby, tomatoe clown, velvet damsel, cleaner shrimp, tuxedo urchin, anemone, hermit crabs & snails. There is plenty of live rock. I am wondering if 2 sexy shrimp would be safe in this tank or would they become somebody's lunch

I have 6 sexy shrimp in my 65g pentagopn tank and nothing bothers them. I would be a little carful about the crabs in your system because they may decide too see what they tase like. The sexy shrimp are suprisingly fast so they can get away if they knew a attack was comming but if a crab managed too sneek up on one I wouldn't be too sure.

I use a crabless CUC just because I don't trust crabs, they are oppertunistic feeders so they really can't be trusted with anything they could kill & eat. Heard many tales of crabs killing a snail just to try on their shell!
