Brown Algae?

[Zerc]

So my cleaner shrimp has what looks like brown algae growing on part of one of his feelers...
Anyone seen this before?
Do I need a 2nd cleaner shrimp so they can help each other out?

Whatever it is I'm sure if it starts bugging him he'll clean it off.

Lights are out on the tank right now, but I will get a picture tomorrow and post it!

My cleaners get the red fuzzy stuff growing on theirs sometimes. They just clean it off or it just comes off on its own.
