1-2 years at the best.

I have one, and I'm not surprised. Yes they are smart compared to a snail or a clam, but compared to a cat or dog they are not.

The octopus will eventually catch the shrimp, the video is just 2 minutes. Probably at night. Also their primary diet is more crab based which are much slower then the cleaner shrimp.

Shrimp lol. Grocery store shrimp. I also feed him live fiddler crabs, but a bag of shrimp that lasts forever costs $8 compared to 120$+ or so for 1-2 months of live fiddler crabs.

He actually seems to prefer the shrimp, but I say their primary diet is more crab based because the are easier to hunt.

Yep, the only thing that video proves is that both the cleaner shrimp and the octopus are smarter than the human involved...
