    Hmm, not sure it was the cleaner shrimp, at least I have never seen mine to be aggressive. I know when a fish has some kind of skin irritant they will usually look for a cleaner shrimp to help get rid of it. I know mine has his little spot on the rock and my clowns go to him to be cleaned but I have never seen it be over aggressive.
