My Blue Tang constantly goes and gets cleaned by my Coral Banded Shrimp...
I wasnt aware that the Banded Shrimp was a cleaner...anyone else witnessed this...its the funniest thing to watch...its like the only time that the Tang sits still for more than a second...totally ADHD...

Cheers...

Sounds like the shrimp has a little identity crisis. Help him work through it, may take therapy.

CBS will clean and so will blood fire. Mine have all done it at some point.

Just the "Cleaner" Shrimp do it most often
