Default FS: Coral Banded Shrimp... $10.

I bought him on Sunday from J&L with the understanding that he's reef safe..

I found out he is NOT that reef safe...

Will someone save me from my mistake.

take him back to J&L. They should at lease give you a credit.

Well tell them that you bought it based on information you received there & see if you can get something that really is reef-safe instead. Good luck.

The killing of my other shrimp

technically not "non reef safe" but I bought the 2 cleaners when I was getting the coral and they said it would be "fine".

I have 2 mated CB shrimp that have released one batch of eggs (fish food) so far. They are great but they made my 2 cleaner shrimp go away which was a drag. I will keep them but not buy them any more expensive food like that!
