Kuekenthal’s Cleaner Shrimp feed on Aptasia anemones in a reef environment. While a single shrimp can feed on Aptasia, it does best when part of a group as they work together to hold the anemone down. In addition to feeding on Aptasia, they also perform the important work of scavenging and cleaning fish from skin parasites. Because of their effective eating habits, they must be watched because they may also feed on small polyps and consume food meant for slower aquatic life such as corals, especially if they are not fed enough.
