The kids have always wanted a shrimp in the tank so yesterday I bought a nice big cleaner shrimp.  I put it in the tank last night after the lights were out.  This morning I went down to take a picture to send to the kids and couldn't see him.  After looking a bit I noticed his antennae hanging out of the wrasse's mouth. Damn thing eats better than me. $25 shrimp breakfast.

Did you buy it from Aquarium Masters?  I took him my extra large cleaner shrimp.  He was probably 3-3.5" long.

No. I didn't. But the wrasse says he's still hungry so it's nice to know where to go to get him dinner tonight!
