I saw some Dancing shrimps in my LFS and i am thinking of purchasing some, could you please give me some info on them before i ask the LFS about them that way i will have some other advice instead of just his.

Are they aggressive?
What do they eat?
Will my hermit crab kill them?
Can i have above 1?

Are we talking about Peppermint Shrimp?
Probably need to verify the species first...

Shrimp will steal food out of the mouth of anything.

Most shrimp are oportunistic scavengers, so they will steal food from other fish and inverts.
