My First Customer!

My skunk cleaner shrimp finally got his first customer today (besides me...he loves to jump on my hand any time it's in the tank.)

"Hey...this guy looks like he could use a good cleaning."




"Here, let me get this little spot on your back."




"If you would just roll over a little, I could get your belly too."


"Don't move, I'm gonna dig around your gills for a little while."


"This is a MESS! Don't you ever clean back here?"

Thats awesome! Just wait until the cleaner shrimp starts to go for rides on the fish as they swim. Its a lot of fun to watch.

Re: My First Customer!

The title of this thread seemed a little "off-topic" when I read it, if you know what I mean...

LOL! Great pictures! That blenny is SO cute, and I wish my shrimp would try to clean my fish! Nice shrimp!
