It says reef compatible: with caution

So, is it reef safe? I dont know for sure if I will be doing jsut a FOWLR or nano reef for sure yet.

Anyone have an y experience with em?

I've got one in a 10gal reef with some candy cane, mushrooms, zoos, and ricordeas.
So far it hasn't bothered any of them and is about as active/shy as the peppermint shrimp in my other tanks.
I've heard of them eating some corals so your experience might be different than mine.
If you're just doing a FOWLR then go for it.
The camels are more interesting looking than the peppermints IMO.

ok. I was actually thinkin about getting 2 bumblebee shrimp, which I may still do later down the line, but my LFS cant find a place ot get ahold of em.

it tells you right in the description what it may nip on:

but may nip at colonial anemones, disc anemones, and soft leather corals. It generally leaves bubble coral and stinging anemones alone.

It dont sound like anything I want in my reef tank.

I have one in my tank, which has about 60lbs of LR, and Zoo Polyps.

So not a full on reef tank, but He doesn't hurt the Polyp's. He (As well as all the shrimp) walk on the polyps, but it doesn't hurt em.

I would not do it. If you like the looks of tht shrimp, go fo a peppermint.
