    I just ran across this in a video I was watching

    I was wondering if one could go with my pair of Cleaner Shrimp? I have never seen this before and it's awesome how they get their food. Almost like pom pom crabs.

    As with most filter feeders they do not fair well. Unless you dose planktonic foods like an NPS system they starve.

    Ouch. What do you think I could dose in there, how often, etc? If cost isn't too much I'd be up for the care
