Cleaning Shrimps

[GaDaMaJa]

Anyone know which place is selling this shrimp?

Btw how much is the price per pcs?

[dragon1188]

Lorong halus.

Balestier also have.

Price depending on which species...around few dollar to above ten dollars.

BTW, although they are called cleaner shrimp, most probably they don't do cleaning in captivity

So what is good to clean up the leftover foods for the tank any advise?

If you are referring to the Scarlet Skunk Cleaner Shrimp, yes they are scavengers too, so they will help eat up leftover food in the tank.

This shrimp is popular among reefers, because they not only can help "clean" the fishes of dean skin and some parasites (if the fish allow), they are part of the clean up crew too.

I've seen prices ranging from $6-$12 depending where you get them.

Yes the cleaner shrimp is one of the must have shrimp for reef keepers. Nice and active shrimps that will clean my fingers when i put my hand into the tank to shift my corals. However they get really excited when you throw in some food and will walk over your corals and will cause them to close up for awhile. Ah beng at pasir ris do sell or the shop beside ah beng also sell.

I have three of them in my nano. Witnessed them eat really old food that turned all fussy. Don't leave snail trails too so that's a plus

Had 1 peppermint and 2 fire shrimps. After 1 month, left 1 fire. My dottyback destroyed them. Now my 1 and only fire is always hiding. Please take note if u r considering a dotty in future.
