I got a cleaner shrimp the other day, actually I got two, one died and wasn't looking too healthy before I even put him in. My question is, should I be buying food specifically for him? I have one three stripe damsel also in the tank and I feel him HBH Marine Soft & Moist Krill. Some usually finds it's way to the bottom of the tank. I think he's doing fine, he molted the other night.

I also bought a conch and a nassarius snail, they should be good with all the stuff already in the tank right?

your cleaners will eat the parasites on your fish and rocks as well will eat anything you add to the tank.,. Brine or mysis shrimp

I actually feed my shrimp directly, they climb on my hands and eat out of my fingers, this way I know that they get some. Mine eat everything, from flake to frozen
