It's rare to come across a cleaner wrasse that eats anything else but parasites off of other fish. Probably why he began to be more of a pest than a benefit. Once in awhile I come across a cleaner wrasse that does accept other food, but overall...yes they are best left in the reefs. If you don't have any fish that naturally prey on shrimp, the skunk cleaner shrimp makes a nice alternative.

We, as a people, know so much more about outer space than we do about our own oceans. This lack of knowledge can very well spell the dangers that lay in wait for us.
The oceans surely would swallow us before a rock comes down to smite the planet of it's life.
