Anemone shrimps

As with many shrimps of the Infraorder Caridea, cleaner shrimps have shown a symbiotic relationships, in most cases, can be seen as mutualistic because cleaner shrimps provide their services, such as cleaning services and nitrogen excretion, while the other species provide the cleaner shrimp protection from predators and sometimes a food source in this case an anemone, these types of relationships, both species work together to benefit one another. Some cleaner shrimps, like, A. magnificus, are relatively small and vulnerable to live by themselves, therefore, they need other organisms to live in.
