I have two cleaner shrimp that hide continuously in a little cave, only occasionally appearing (once a fortnight-ish) -

Does anyone have any ideas on coaxing them out more?

They seem healthy enough, and when I do see them, I feed them on a long straw, which they take happily enough, I think they are growing too - but I'd like to see them a bit more!

My cleaners do this they are breeding continuasly one time both of them had eggs:confused: they only come out when I feed the tank,

No way of coxing them out mate if they are happy there leave them be IMO

- If I'd have know I was going to get teenage cleaner shrimps, hanging round in their rooms all the time making out I might have thought twice about it!:rolleyes:

Yeah they made a full recovery, though in the end I thought better of introducing the regal into the main tank with my regal, and traded him in when he had recovered

Foxface is doing really well, properly settled in now - I really like him
