Coral banded shrimp eating anenome crab

[GypsyReefer]

Has anyone ever seen or heard of a coral banded shrimp eating crabs? I had an anenome crab. The other day I saw the banded shrimp with what looked like my anenome crab in its mouth.

maybe the crab molted and the shrimp was eating the molted exoskeleton?

 

[GypsyReefer]

I suppose that is possible but I have not seen the crab since.

They are opportunistic omnivores and that includes fish.

I have noticed that all my peppermint shrimp are gone as well as two small gobies. Does anyone want a coral banded shrimp.

i got rid of my coral banded shrimp because it ate two additions to my tank. my skunk cleaner shrimp however is an awesome and valued member of my tank

 

[GypsyReefer]

Will it eat all of my pods in the fug?

Coral bandeds are mean. Wild caught normally and never give up killing
