Description
The Camel Shrimp (Rhynchocinetes uritai) is a vibrant addition to any saltwater aquarium. Known for its distinct red-and-white striped body and unique, "hunched" stance, it is a favorite among aquarists. Though hardy and easy to care for, Camel Shrimp should not be housed with coral as they may nip at polyps, making them ideal for fish-only setups.
