This pixture does a good job of showing just how transparent .... the body of a Spotted Cleaner Shrimp really is.
They are found all throughout the Caribbean and can be found on the reef as deep as 79ft.
They live in association with an Anemone.
Their job is to clean the parasites and flakes of dead skin from the fish .... that visit the cleaning station.
A job that includes entering the mouths and gills of fish they clean.
So here's my question.
If you were there, with a good view, during the cleaning .... would you actually see the food inside their body?
Or is it too microscopic to be seen .... with the naked eye.
