Why We Like It
The Peacock Tail Anemone Shrimp is a beautiful symbiotic shrimp best known for the striking eye-like spots on its tail and its close association with host anemones. Its translucent body and elegant markings allow it to blend seamlessly amongst the tentacles while remaining fascinating to observe. Peaceful and reef safe, this shrimp adds both interest and natural behaviour to marine aquariums, often spending its days cleaning, feeding and interacting with its chosen host. A superb choice for reef keepers looking to showcase one of nature’s most intriguing partnerships.
