Pairing up cleaners..

[Willie_6]

Apparently cleaner shrimp pair up easy. HEre is my somewhat dumb question. What is so special about them pairing up? Is there more to pairing up then them being side by side all the time? I am not sure if I am missing something.

nope, it's that simple.

They're hermaphrodites. One size fits all.

With two around you may end up with some reporduction going on.. it's cool to see them release the larvae into the water (if you don't mind staying up till 2am to watch it) other than that no you're pretty much getting the full experience... they do seem to be more agressive in pairs. which makes them better cleaners and scavengers, as well as stomatella killers.
