Cleaner shrimp hurting Frogspawn?

[AirForceAquariu]

Hi all! I have just joined the ranks of LPS keepers with my first frag of bracing Frogspawn. I decided to give him a little target fed mysis today and my cleaner shrimp wwent after it.

He wasn't super aggressive and once the coral closed he left. I'm not sure who got how much of what to eat but I'm a little worried about him hurting it. Anyone have experience one way or the other?

The shrimp just went after the food and won't hurt the frogspawn. Although if a coral is dying, I've seen shrimp attack the dead parts of it.

Both my peppermint shrimp munched on a healthy plate coral and frodspawn. And really ate on the gsp. Caveat emptor.

It's smart to put some pellets at the bottom of the tank for the shrimp to munch on while feeding, mine do the same thing.

Did they cause serious damage?

This evening I tried again when he was on the other side of the tank. Went much better, although he trapsed across my new bed I of zoos who weren't as amused haha.


Thanks for the advice!

Peppermints can and will munch on corals. The other cleaner shrimps not so much.

I wish I could borrow your shrimp. I didnt see the "fingers" on the back of my GSP island reaching some of my base rock. Now I have to scrape it off every few weeks as it grows back where I dont want it.
