Fish died and shrimp found eating it

[ffmedic]

Had a fire fish die unexpectedly and I found my skunk cleaner shrimp munching away. What are the odds of the shrimp killing the firefish? And is this normal behavior of the cleaner shrimp.

Much more likely that it died and then was eaten than killed by a cleaner shrimp.

Cleaner shrimp are pretty much incapable of killing things. They have really small claws.
Shrimp, like most crustaceans, are opportunistic. They'll eat dead stuff, sure.
