My peppermint shrimp hangs on the rock all the time "tickling" my LTA's tentacles with his antennae. At feeding time he crawls right up on the LTA and steals his food. I don't know if I should do anything about this.
 
Sounds about right. Do you have any clowns in there? They will fight off the shrimp. I would not worry too much. The shrimp on't eat everything. :)
 
Try feeding the shrimp first on the other side to keep them busy. That is what I did with my H. Magnifica.

I'm not worried because the anemone don't seem to shy away. I have 2 clowns but they don't bother with the anemone.
