Peppermint Shrimp Death Wish?

[Steverd]

This freaks me out, One of my large Peppermint shrimps climbs on my anemone.
What's going on? I keep thinking the shrimp will be eating by the anemone?

Short video of this crazy shrimp:



Comments please!!
Thank you

Shrimp like most arthropods have compound eyes. These are geared towards sensing changes in light more than visual acuity like our own. So we can see an anemone tentacle the shrimp really only sees it if it moves. Why its so hard to swat a fly but venus fly traps seem to succeed more often.

I find my Peppermints are accomplished carpet surfers.
