Thanks Diana! I just sent you a pm saying you should post a pic, haha.

Both shrimp are reef safe, other than stealing food from the corals they are great (my trick for this was to distract them with big pieces of food when feeding the coral, seemed to do the trick)

Griff always has ich and this shrimp is having a buffet!!! None of the other fish ever have it aside of Griffie, don't know why he is so bad, but since adding all the cleaners it is almost gone now. He is floating in his tunnel with his little buddy. Griffie has his eyes rolled back and his mouth is hanging open. I swear I can see a trickle of drool coming out. His fins are out backwards and I see the shrimp picking him off with his front feet.

Griff didn't even come out for breakfast today... he came out with the shrimp toured the little guy around and went back to his tunnel. He swam so slowly to make sure the shrimp didn't fall off. Really amazing thing to see.

I had a few offers on him but just could not bear to let the big fatty go... I love him too much and he seems to appreciate the cleaners finally. Before he would eat them first and ask questions later...

My tank would not be the same without him.
