Hi guys I just notice my anemone was all most closed up, So as I got a closer look to way I noticed my 2 cleaner shrimp picking at it!!!! I've never seen this before, but they do allways hang out beside it, is this normal, Or will they kill the anemone? it just started tonight so if it keeps up I may have to try and remove them. Any input would be great guys.
Thanks.

Well it's been a few days now, and things are back to normal, they did stop picking at it. nothing to worry about if this happens to you.

They are curious little fellers eh??  Mine sometimes poke at my folded brain, I was worried the first time I saw it but they seem gentle enough.  Like my cleaner wrasse nipping at my snails' faces.
