Hi so its been a week since I added my anemone(Long tentacle Anemone) in my tank and I recently just added sexy shrimp and I just found out a day after that everytime I see my anemone deflated theres sexy shrimp in it and everytime I scare of the shrimp my anemone would go back to normal. What is happening? Do sexy shrimp eat my anemone? Is it killing my anemone
(Pictures doesnt have my sexy shrimp since I already scared it away) what Should I do?

Sexy shrimp are symbiotic with anemones. They absolutely aren’t harming it. If the nem didn’t want them there, it would eat them. Stop scaring them off.
