Crazy Cleaner Shrimp(pics)

[Gonzo82]

I was looking at my tank today and saw something kinda weird. I had always heard that coral banded shrimp would eat bristleworms. Well, i guess my cleaner likes them too. He was eating one that was about 2.5 to 3 in. long and ate the whole thing. He broke it up into little pieces and ate them individually. It took about 20 min. Heres the pic.

That's pretty weird. Never seen one eat bristles but, I had mine completely clean my porities of it's christmas tree worm colony. :?

maybe the worm just stopped by for a "cleaning".
