![]() I just bought a millipora, and right now it's in a bucket getting acclimated. But I put the flashlight on it and I saw a small lime green shrimp, picking away at the coral, in a cleaning manner. There is also a acro crab on it. Anyone know what that shrimp is? Sorry don't have a camera. It's about the size, of the frozen PE mysis shrimp. Any imput would be appreciated. Thanks

![]() Does it have lighter-coloured lines along the length of its body? Perhaps a Coralliocaris sp. (C. graminea, C. viridis), or Alpheus sp.

![]() Teevee! I can't really see any sort of a line just looks all lime colour. He is right next to the crab and they don't seem bothered by each other. So he is ok to put in my tank?

![]() Search on crinoid snapping shrimp. It's lime green, but translucent, right? I had a couple in my tank before.
