I got two pedersoon's before, and all missing in 3 month, I don't know which one kill it.
I got cleaner shrimp,. clowns, yasha goby and pistol shirmp back then.

Now I want get anothe two for my 25 gallon, the tank mates are two clowns, 1 mandarin,
1 tailspot bleny, 1 blood shrimp, and I get rid of the psitol shrimp already which
I think he might eat pederson's shrimp.

I also want to 1 flasher wrasse or fairy wrasse, are they safe to pederson's shrimp?

How about royal gamma?

Does the bloody shrimp will bother pederson's shrimp,

If they do, I rather get rid of my blood shrimp.

Flasher and Fairy wrasses won't touch shrimp, nor will the royal gramma. Can't comment on the Pedersons shrimp, as I've never heard of it.

The blood red shrimp won't bother them. My guess is that it was the pistol shrimp you had.

Do you have ricordea or anemone? If you do they will stay around there and wander off and disappear

that's what I thought, so I got rid of the pistol shrimp already now, I think my yasha goby won't so happy about that.

The Gramma will definitely eat a Pederson's given the chance. But then again, so will the Pistol.

I think you are safe with the Fairy Wrasse. I too had to google the shrimp and man they are pretty, but I bet it would be easy for them to disappear!
