Fire Shrimp wont clean fish

[Spammie33]

Every time my fish go to get cleaned the fire shrimp just doesn’t pay them any attention. my fire shrimp has never cleaned my fish, is there a reason for this or anything i can do to help?

A lot of them don’t do it in captivity. It’s kick off the draw.

Scarlet Skunk shrimp better choice for cleaning, and don’t hide as much as fire shrimp

I had a Fire Shrimp. He cleaned no one.

Scarlett Skunk Cleaner Shrimp went ape s**t on anything that would let it.

I miss them little boogers.

Same experience here!

My Scarlet Cleaner Shrimp take every opportunity that presents itself to clean a fish, but my Fire Shrimp have never shown the slightest interest.
