What exactly does monitor with shrimp mean?

Hi everyone, a born again noob. I started with fish when I was 10 yo, and just got back into it 30 years later. I've been looking at some angels on SWF and alot of them say "monitor with shrimp." My question is does that mean my cleaner shrimp & hermits are going to get devoured? Or if I buy an angel and don't feed it regularly, I'll have shrimp chow? Or another option I haven't thought of yet.
Thanks for any responses.

I don't think it does. Wouldn't it just say "no" under "invertebrate safe?" Most of the descriptions will say if they eat shrimp or not, so I'm curious as to whether or not it has a different meaning.

It means there is a chance. Same as most dwarfs with corals. Which angels were listed to monitor, i didn't see any. Did you mean angler?

No, there is no different meaning. It means, "If you put a shrimp in there, his azz will be eat...eventually, so don't come back to us fussing or asking for your money back, because we warned you. Might not happen today, or this week, but it's going to happen...okay"
