That is a great shrimp that is in the picture as well. I had one that hosted in a fungia . I fed only reefroids in that tank to it seemed to do well.

LOL...I was wondering why you needed help identifying the coral! But everyone was shooting guesses at the coral, so I ran with it

I have never seen a shrimp like that before. In fact, I don't even know what I'm looking at? Can you get a full body shot? (ooh-la-lah...)

yea, i think i can ID a leather coral after all these years in the hobby LOL.
Well my own fault i need to be more specific for sure.

I've been tryng to get a clear shot at this thing for long time but it is so transparent that point and shoot camera doesn't focus on it. I will try with my D70 in manual mode to get a better shot.

If the shrimp is all transparent I would say it's a crystal shrimp. However if the red and white (that I see in the pic) is part of the shrimp (which I think it is) then I have no idea what type it is. Good luck. BTW I thought it was funny everyone was telling you what coral it was, when I thought for sure you must mean the shrimp ID

[fishoholic]

I got curious so I thought I'd try to find it on the net. Anyway it is a Periclimenes Koroensis more commonly know as a type of Aneomone shrimp. There is pic's of it in the shrimp/crab identification section (on canreef) under aneomone shrimp part. There is also a pic. under this site http://www.eyefathom.com/photos.php?picID=1405 Unfortunately these sites only tell you what it is not how to take care of it I don't know about all shrimps but the 4 different shrimps we have all love mysis, reef roids, and marine pellets. Ironicly they love the mysis the most!

Ok here is some more pics. of this shrimps (i got two )
I wonder if they would host GBTA ?
Would a lot of flow be a problem?

And would clown fish that is Not hosting anemone right now push these guys away IF he decides to host later?

Your shrimp are Periclimenes kororoensis. I have seen them in Indonesia and Solomon Islands.
