Hi, has anyone ever owned a pederson shrimp, do they cleand fish in your tank? and is there any kind of fish/invert that will eat them?
 
From Aqua Connection:

Description:The Pederson Cleaner Shrimp, also known as the Anemone Shrimp plays a significant role in the reef tank. These shrimp will lure fish with their antennas so they can hop onto the fish and begin "cleaning", or picking parasites from them. Many fish will even let them clean the inside of their mouths. They will also form relationships with anemones, the anemone will allow the shrimp to live within its tentacles for protection. These shrimp have transparent bodies with beautiful blue and purple markings, and sometimes they have subtle orange spotting similar to sexy shrimp.
Food and diet:They will accept flake, meaty foods and will forage for algae on the live rock.
Recommended minimum tank size: 1 gallon or larger
Reef Compatibility:Very good
Approximate Purchase Size: 3/4" to 1"
