Oh and I also think that japonica/Ammano shrimp are fine with a lot of loaches but probably not large clowns. I've kept these with five different species of Botia for years and never lost one to predation. Cherry shrimp aren't safe, though.

I have some young Histrionica who live very peacefully with my pair of ghost shrimp. They're still young though, so I don't know how well they will get along when the loaches grow up...
