Maxi mini
I woke up this morning to find my maxi mini enjoying one of my cleaner shrimp. The maxi has been in my tank for 4 months maybe and has never done this before. Is this normal? I guess I should do some research but never thought he would take something that was at least twice the size of him. Thx

are you sure its the shrimp and not just a molt?.....Maxi's are a type of carpet nem and shouldn't be considered completely harmless
 .....I think one of my maxis may have been responsible for the disappearance of two of my trimma gobies

I've got a whole tank of them and feed them large mysis, which they grab very quickly
 They are pretty sticky and I'm sure would grab small perching type fish. Shrimp I don't know about. I have sexy shrimps which they host.

Seems to have been a molt thank goodness. It must be a sign he's hungry I guess. Thanks for the responses.
