Not that I am concerned, would like for it to eat the other two camel shrimp...but
Was looking at the tank before the lights came on this morning and noticed some antennae sticking out of the brain and the fact that it was very closed up, more closed up than I have ever seen it.
here are some shots, first few were taken with D200 and 85mm lens then some I threw on a 36mm extension tube to get closer with the same lens. None of the aquarium lights were on so I used an SB800 and shot manually.
This next one is a crop before I put on the extension tube, but you can really see the antenae good in this shot and it looks like you can make out some of the pink body color.
This one and below start the extension tube shots, I changed aperture to f/8 at this point due to the smaller DOF caused by getting closer too the coral.
Now, I have two other camels and two cleaner shrimp in the system along with at least four star fish and who knows how many snails and crabs. I think if the shrimp had died without being killed by the coral odds are any of those "moving" predators would have gotten too the shrimp before water current happened it into the brain.
