Best Answer

Most shrimp are omnivorous, but some are specialised for particular modes of feeding. Some are filter feeders, using their legs as a sieve; some scrape algae from rocks. Cleaner shrimpfeed on the parasites and necrotic tissue of the reef fish they groom. In turn, shrimp are eaten by various animals, particularly fish and seabirds, and frequently host parasites
