It cleans the rocks and is friendly. Kids love it very much.
Cool and funky dudes; mine like sitting upside down all day. If you have a pair, they will breed regularly (see my video) although the babies are usually instantly eaten lol Mine personally have never cleaned a fish, but they’ll definitely jump on your hand if you put it within range of their antennae Pros: unique and colorful; easy to keep Cons: will steal food from corals Availability: easy to find
Great friendly addition to any reef tank. Is visible and active during the day, and moving around all night. Adds a nice touch of color with the bright red and white
Chill shrimp. Spends his days swaying in the current. Friendly addition to the tank.
