So I found my favorite Red Fire Shrimp fully engulfed in my Sebae Anemone. I tugged on my little friend's antennas and out he popped. He was still alive!! He looked way troubled at first with a bunch of goobers on him but slowly over a couple of minutes he started moving again and eventually got himself all cleaned up. What the heck? I know its hard to tell without seeing him but could he still live?

I would say if he's acting ok then yes. His exoskeleton may have protected him from the stings.

Good save. Thumbs Up
Has this anemone been eating other shrimp, I mean are you feeding it shrimp?

No I have never fed it anything, a clown hosts in it. That was the craziest thing I have ever seen. I was pretty mad at first cause the shrimp has such a cool personality. I was just gonna let it go but I decided to give him a tug. Im glad I did, so far today he is looking good.
