I once acclimated a cleaner shrimp for what I knew was not long enough... some emergency or impatience made me drop it in too fast (only 30 minutes or so).
The bristleworms found him and started in before he could get settled. It was gross.
If the acclimation goes bad for whatever reason the shrimp is damaged, and the scavengers know right away.
