Default Cleaner Shrimp cleaning Wrasse's hole!



Just watched my cleaner shrimp going down on my leopard wrasse. The fish was just settling down when the shrimp flipped it over & started "cleaning" it. What was so unusual was that it was sticking its tiny claws into the wrasse's hole & pulling out wrasse poop for a snack.

"YUCK!"

Now that's an impatient shrimp. Can't even wait for the fish to poop but has to go digging for the "gold".

Sorry, no pics but just thought I'd share my observations

The wrasse took it for about 15 sec, then booted it out of there.

Anthony

Prostate exam!!!

But I didn't hear the snap of little gloves or a "Bend over please & cough" or nothing. What a rude, unhygenic doctor that shrimp is
