Do cleaner shrimp eliminate bristle worms?

[GenericReefer]

Heard of cleaner shrimp eating bristle worms. And vice versa.

Got both in my tank. You know where this is going :p

I know they can help clean up detritus, but I don't want to go through removing them or putting anything in the tank. Plus, they're super creepy which is a reason in itself.

Cleaner shrimp won’t eat bristleworms, maybe if they were dead, but then the would have t share with the other bristleworms. Bristleworms will eat a dead cleaner shrimp but they won’t atack and k8ll it. There’s lots o& creepy things in life and they all serve a valuable purpose in nature.

Some cleaner shrimps do eat bristle worm I watched mine eat one in the dark with red red flashlight looking to get some slugs out of my tank and Ito my surprise cleaner shrimp caught one and was eating it until it was all gone , never had I seen then before
