Need help with my flower pot coral

I've been watching my flower pot for a few days now because it hasn't been opening in one spot and today I noticed what looked like a shrimp had made its home their. The shrimps no larger than a grain of rice and I can't get any good pictures of do to it's size. Has anyone else had this happen before and if so do I need to remove it from the coral?
 
Ideas:

1. Buy a wrasse (almost any will do), or hawk fish, I've even had my H cf. Kuda (mid size sea horse) take same size shrimp down.

2. Coral Rx dip(I'd try this first)
 
In most cases, if this is a wild 'caught' goni, it probably won't matter what you try to fix it...they are doomed from the start!
 
I went to Petco and a local marine fish store to see if they could help. Petco was no help :/ and the local shop told me to let it run it's course because most likely it won't last long anyway. I still want to give it the best chance at surviving.
 
I have an update on my flowerpot. This morning I was watching the spot where I saw the shrimp and I haven't seen him all day. The flower pots opening all the way now.
