    I'm surprised the lfs let's you put hands in the tank. One of the main stores I always went to, you weren't allowed to do that. I sure as hell wouldn't let people do it. Just with possibility of contaminating water.

    My cleaner shrimp hangs from one of my powerheads and its like a line for a car wash to get in. Cleans all 3 of my tangs. He cleans one, hops off, and the next one gets in line and he hops on that one. Every day I see this multiple times.
    I thought it was normal lol
