Ok so I am looking to get a coral banned shrimp and i looked online and it said they were gentle but I went to my LFS and they said it can be aggressive towards other shrimp, but the only reason I want this shrimp is because my peppermint shrimp is gone, but I have a pistol shrimp will it do anything to the pistol shrimp?

How big is your tank? It probably won't bother the pistol shrimp, but you never can tell with CBS these days. One thing that I've noticed over the years is when a CBS is kept well fed the aggression tends to subside, so definitely keep that in mind. GL.
