Cleaner vs. Peppermint

Can I put cleaner shrimp and peppermint shrimp together in a 75 gal?  I want the peppermint for aiptasia, but I also want a cleaner shrimp to clean my fish.  So will they get along if I introduce them at the same time?

I've had no problems either.

I have fireshrimp, peppermint and cleaner all in the same tank and they get along fine.  They each have their space and don't intrude on the others.

Izzy - yes.

Quick question (warning I'm really new, so this may be a really stupid question...)

Now that you've been warned, I have a question about cleaner shrimp... Is a cleaner shrimp a specific type of shrimp, or is it a name for a group of shrimp.  I ask this because I was reading on drfostersmith.com about different types or shrimp and they refer to scarlet skunk shrimp, peppermint shrimp, blood red fire shrimp, and the coral banded shrimp as all being members of the "Cleaner Family"  Are certain shrimp better than others at cleaning fish, if so which ones are the best???

Thanks

Wow! You know you're on a good Message Board when you ask a question, and the next day when you check it, the conversation has gone on without you!   When I said "cleaner shrimp" I was referring to the skunk shrimp.  I know that they almost all clean in some way, but that one is best for cleaning the fish.  Well, I guess I will be getting a few different kinds now!  I don't have much aiptasia now, but I figure it's soon to come because I saw one yesterday.  I just want to stay ahead of it!

Shrimp are very hearty (I always go back and forth between hearty and hardy) once acclimated and situated, however they are very intolerant of high nitrates (that's what I'm waiting for on my tank, otherwise I would've added (2) shrimp by now).  Make sure that you have 0 ammonia and as close to 0 nitrites and <10 Nitrates and you should be set. 

It's tough to say an exact timeline because depending on your setup a 1-week old tank could have the same parameters as a 2-month old tank.

Just do tests and make sure your numbers are in line.

What shrimp are you thinking of getting?  

Thanks for answering my questions!

Izzy, I want to get either a cleaner or a coral banded (just because I think they look the coolest) and my wife really wants me to get a blood red fire shrimp, she saw one at Aquatica and thought it was the coolest thing ever.  So we'll see, I still have quite a bit of work to do before buying any shrimp, but I'm getting closer!
