    Happens all the time. It can get quite annoying actually, when you are trying to do work in the tank and the shrimp won't get off your hands.

    Yeah it is pretty cool and my hands feel clean when they finish picking haha. Unfortunately my cleaner shrimp and 2 peppermints that would ride my hands are MIA. Credited to the Royal Gramma.

    hey man sorry if i came across as a dink in ur previous thread. forgivness please. just a tip or at least good practice IMO is to always wear gloves when working in the tank. zoos and other coral have neuro (spelt wrong im sure) toxins that will put you in the hospital if it gets in the blood stream. how many tanks do you have? you have some fish in a QT but where are the inverts and coral?
