I got some small pepermint shrimp about a month
ago. They are tiny like 3/4". I have a Arrow crab I have
had for some time now. I saw that one of the shrimp
was in back of a rock and the arrow crab was poking
it's legs under there it looked like he was chasing
the shrimp and the shrimp would keep moving every
time the leg got closer. should I keep the crab or will
he eat other shrimp I put in the tank.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Arrow eats him.

If you have discovered in your tank feedings what the Arrow Crab likes to eat, just give it more and it will probably leave the PS alone so that it can grow up to defend itself.

A gradual increase in tank feeding will increase the growth of everything, including one of the typical AC's favorite foods, Bristleworms.

Well if I put the shrimp in the refugium for a while
then what would I feed them to help them grow and
stay safe?
