Phyllognathia ceratophthalma, a close relative of harlequin shrimp. It also feeds on echinoderm tube feet.

Neat huh?

Cool. It's like a harlequin shrimp, only hornier.

Matt where did you get the pictures from? they are verry rare and hard to get a hold of in this hobby. I have only seen them one other time. I sure would love to get a pair of them to add to my shrimp coll.

If I could get a hold of a mated pair of thoes I would set up a 20gal tall just to keep them in all by themselfs

I got the pics from a reef diving site. Not from in a tank. Apparently they are very rare and very secretive. If you see one in the trade, I'm sure it will cost a lot. Plus hard to feed, and would probably hide all the time. But I would love one for my shrimp collection too!

15 gallon. I only used tapwater annd a lot of Macro. Ya think maybe the Macro didn't get out all the nasty chemicals in the tapwater?

maybe if you had provided some circulation they wouldn’t be so angry

Naww, they didn't like flake food, and preferred the live stuff

See what happens when you don't start the tank out with plant life first?
