Will a cleaner/skunk shrimp and harlequin shrimp peacefully co-exist? I want the harlequin to remove the Asterina starfish but don't want a shrimp fight.

They should be fine... especially in a 46 gal

let me add... harlequin's although cool lookin come with many bad traits. They hide a lot during the day. They are very small and have a huge appetite and will probably wipe away your asterina population in a couple weeks. At that point you will have to buy starfish as food or try to catch him and take back to the LFS.

They do not come out. But I have a LOT of asterina. No way will it deplete them in a couple of weeks.
