My bubble tip seems to have deflated tentacles where my cleaner shrimp hangs out.... Those two have been kinda friends for a few months.... Is he damaging the anenome? Just irritating it? And is it something bad?

Should be fine. Cleaners often try to steal food bits from anemones. I had a pair that would steal from an H. magnifica until the Clownfish would shoo them away.

EDIT: nice pictures.

Thanks :) bubble tip just doesn't seem like he's to happy about it lol. But as long as it's not super bad

Ha! He will adapt. We generally do not give our critters enough credit to fend for themselves.
