    well fire shrimp can be agressive towards cleaner shrimp and even hermits
    they need caves and hiding spots in live rock
    you can feed them meaty foods like mysis and brine shrimp
    you cant keep them with agressive fish like lionfish or triggers

    you can read lots about em just do a quick search :D

    well thanks alot because the cleaner fish i believe you are talking about would be the skunk cleaner correct? well anyway thanks for the advice and i do wish i had a large enough tank for a lion fish because i am now about to be a freshman in high school but at the begging of my sixth grade year our teacher past out a different slip with a different animal on each slip and i got the lion fish which this is the first time i had heard of him but they are sure so facinating(sorry for bad spelling) but anyway thanks for the advice;D;D
