A coral banded shrimp is an omnivore and will eat anything it can catch and overpower.

True! The older they get, the more aggressive they get.

When I saw one grab my yellow tang by the narrow part above the tail I swore I'd never own another one. Granted the yellow tang was sick, but MAN...that was ugly to watch.
