Cleaner shrimp emergency

[MrMeanyHead]

Cleaner shrimp got feet sucked into wave maker and can’t move now

 

[MrMeanyHead]

He got a foot trapped in the wave maker a few days age and since then he is unable to walk properly, I saw him eating hair algae and that prevented him from moving as it got tangled in his feet I removed that and now he’s just laying there

I'm sorry but everything I have ever read, said that once a shrimp is on its side, or back, it's over.

Is there any chance he survives, he’s eating.

 

[MrMeanyHead]

The worst part is I’ve had him only a few months and he was more expensive than my Clausewitz blenny.

I'm not an expert, I am only reiterated what I have read, and seen with my eyes. If he's eating, that is certainly a good sign.
