No problem. I currently have 1 in my 90gal & she's been in there for nearly 6 months!

Now there 2 classes of shrimp. Community & Aggressive. Any shrimp you see with no pincers, just tiny little feeder arms are community friendly. Anything with LONG front arms or claws are aggressive. Now the Banana shrimp have fan hands, they are also community friendly & soooo cool to watch!
