Neon Dottyback + CBS = lunch?

[Grandczar]

Got a neon dotty in a 29gal with lots of LR.
Should I chance adding a CBS? Are they considered ornamental shrimps?

Yes CBS are considered ornamental shrimp and yes your Neon Dottyback may consider it an expensive snack.

I'm keeping a tank raised orchid dottyback with a cleaner shrimp. I haven't had any problems with this combo.

I have a large CBS in with a Dutoiti after the intital face off...the Psuedo doesn't mess with it

They have been together for a couple of years now.

I have a neon dotty in my 55gal with a cleaner shrimp and a blood red shrimp. Im not sure but I think he might have been the one that ate my red leg hermits.(not sure all the blue legs are still alive) But he does leave my shrimp alone, even though I noticed that they hate him.
