Fire Shrimp

Lysmata debelius

The Fire Shrimp (Blood Shrimp) is one of the most stunning invertebrates available, with a deep blood-red body, white spots, and brilliant white antennae. It is shy and nocturnal, preferring to hide in caves during the day and emerge at night to scavenge and clean. More reclusive than the Skunk Cleaner but equally hardy; a showpiece invert for any reef tank.
