Can a cleaner shrimp survive with a large snowflake eel?

[jesspete]

We weren't entirely sure, but had high hopes. Got the biggest one Tim had. It's been in the tank for a week now, and we haven't seen it clean any fish even though it obviously had it's "cleaning station" set up. The fish tend to hang out on the other side of the tank and may not have found each other yet.

Well, came home tonight, halides were out, but some of the actinics were still on.

Some of these pics are BaaaaaaahhhhD. I shot them with the iphone quick as I could.

The cleaner shrimp actually got INTO the eels mouth. Sorry, I'm excited. Never had one before!

Wow! cool pics. ---I would NEVER think a cleaner shrimp would have a prayer w/ an eel, but guess you proved me wrong-best of luck--and again, cool snaps!
