As for whether camel shrimp are reef safe, that's their one drawback—most aquarists agree they're not. They will pick at anemones, polyps, soft corals, and pretty much anything else they can find.
Camel shrimp are sometimes recommended to help get rid of aiptasia, a type of pest anemone that can infest our tanks. This is likely due to confusion with the peppermint shrimp, Lysmata wurdemanni. Camels may pick at aiptasia, but they won't help much in controlling an infestation.
