What is this???
 
I'm kind of a novice with my reef tank that we've had for a year and a half.
For the past couple of months, I've caught a quick peek at some critter that
I had never seen before. I didn't buy him, and like I said, had not seen
him for the 1st year. He only comes out at night (I assume). Well, tonight
I snapped a couple of pictures. They are not great pics, but maybe good
enough to identify him. He is about 2" long (maybe a tad more). The link
below is to the picture. I would appreciate any info.

Thanks!
Wes

It's a shrimp of some kind. It's probably not a problem.

I was pretty sure it was some kind of shrimp, but I'd really like to find
out more.
Thanks for the help!

Almost looks like a camel shrimp, or maybe a harlequin?

I looked around a bit and it looks (to me) like a female Saron Shrimp.

I think it looks closer to being a harlequin, but it does have a hump
like a camel, but I do not really think its either. One thing it is
though, its U G L Y!

I think it's cool. If I saw it at LFS, i'd likely buy it.

Ah Jan is now Carols secretary......as she has rto forward posts to
her. Whats a matter carol you love to check headers......or is it that
for allowing Jaan to kiss your feet and fat ass you feel obligated to
also let her check headers for you too......odds are your still gonna
post a 5 star alert to the fact, so why bother.

Oh Jan, Carol said to kiss a bit more to the middle of her big toe
and make sure you get all the toe jam while yuur at it. She said the
toenail fungal is not transmittable to the mouth so don't pay it any
attention, then you can start on her fat ass right in the middle
where the bullsegye is!

The next time you see a message you think might be mine under a

so the

that's the
best thing to do if you are unsure of the header. Don't you

agree? :-)

I'm sure most people would agree that's better than wrongly

accusing someone
right here on a NG already being trolled for just such tidbits.

You have my
e-mail address.

Thanks ;-)
