They get to be about an inch. Any shrimp shouldn't be added until your tank is a little more mature though as they are very sensitive creatures.

Not trying to bring you down, just don't want to see you waste your money or have livestock die on you

Ya cleaners don't bother anything. They annoy some people because the will try and "clean" your hand when ever it's in the tank (actually one of the reasons I love these guys) but other than stealing food, they don't bother anything. They will eat something that dies, but they won't kill it.

10 gallon nano-reef coming together

Did we not mention that shrimp are very finicky and do better in mature tanks?

Nems, Clams, and shrimp but not as long for shrimp. It's possible to keep him well, but they just prefer a little older tanks. 3-5months.

Do you mean Nitrate is 20? I find it hard to believe that you can test in such a small increment.

Nah you'll be fine as long as you take good care of him. Some people can never keep the shrimp long, others can keep them for years.

Yeah, I'd get it less then 10. That could harm the shrimp.
