This is a very small shrimp that makes a perfect addition to any nano aquarium. It features a translucent/orange body with scattered white spots. It is imperative that you never house the Anemone Shrimp with predatory fishes or inverts as they will easily consume this organism. They are reef safe, peaceful, and will readily find a host coral or other organism.
Males and females also exhibit differentiation making mating in the home aquarium relatively easy. Males are generally smaller with a single white stripe across the abdomen while females are large with multiple stripes.
