For me, shrimps have always been harder to acclimate. If not acclimated properly, they will shake back and forth and are basically paralyzed and vulnerable to getting eatened.

I'm always reading about messages where people threw their shrimp into their tanks only to have them eaten by a fish and then they say things like you can't keep sexy shrimp with clownfish or whatever. To me, I have 3 sexy shrimps and 1 tiny anemone shrimp living with a Leopard Wrasse, Hippo Tang, Clowns, Flame Angel, Lg Fireshrimps and Peppermint shrimps, and Serpent Star. Yet, my tiny sexy shrimps and anemone shrimp are all alive after months (some over a year). There's no problem at all but others will swear that these little shrimps are not compatible with even a clownfish, when the real problem was that they didn't acclimate the shrimps.
