What type of shrimp should I get for a 55 gallon FO tank with a yellow tang, blue tang, flame angel, and a percula clown. I know, we shouldn't have two tangs in our small tank but we didn't know this until after we bought them - LFS recommended.

There is no real "correct" kind, only what kind you like. However I would go with something fishfreek recommended, some of the other shrimp are a hassle to care for You can never go wrong with a couple cleaner shrimp, beneficial in cleaning your fish and won't harm a thing.

Nope, rarely they are found eating urchins in the wild but never take to them in captive care. If you are unable/unwilling to feed the harlequin starfish, best not get one....Electrobes said:Is there any othe thing you can feed a harlequin shrimp other thn star fish?
