Harlequin shrimp

[turtle1937]

I’ve had a harlequin for a week now it’s been eating all the astarena stars and imma get it small chocolate chip starfish this weekend but I finally found its cave!!!!!!!! It hides next to the anemone and the clowns. Is that normal? Anyone else’s harlequin hang out next to the anemone?

Okay I thought a emerald crab ate him the first day lol but found him the next day and then today he’s next to the anemone

Theyre smart enough to establish a safe zone within reef setting

Amazing creatures!! I thought my clowns would chase it away because they have eggs but they ignore him completely

Do you see it during the day? Just got one today. It seems awfully small. Like 1/2” small. Hope it survives and eats those starfish.
