Shrimp and clams
Well I got a corcea clam and it looks like the cleaner shrimp is trying to eat it. So is it trying to eat it or is it cleaning it or what. It is a normal cleaner shrimp

If the clam is on the way out, I can see why the shrimps are all over it. Do you have a pic? |

No lights are off and clam was closed up and the shrimp was clawing at its foot. It looks very healthy durring the day, bright colors, full mantel extention, and responds very fast to things
