Cleaner shrimp + bubble tip.

My bubble tip seems to have deflated tentacles where my cleaner shrimp hangs out.... Those two have been kinda friends for a few months.... Is he damaging the anenome? Just irritating it? And is it something bad?

Should be fine. Cleaners often try to steal food bits from anemones. I had a pair that would steal from an H. magnifica until the Clownfish would shoo them away.

EDIT: nice pictures.

Ha! He will adapt. We generally do not give our critters enough credit to fend for themselves.
