I picked up a new piece of Live rock last night for my tank, and as soon as
I dropped it in, out pops a shrimp who then immediately burrows a hole under anoter piece of rock. He has all the markings of a Skunk Cleaner, so at first I was satisfied to think that he was. But, then I noticed he had two very large claws in front, and made a snapping sound, like a trigger or pistol shrimp, but I have never seen one of those with Skunk markings, or a Skunk with large claws. So my question goes, what the hell is it? LOL I would offer a pic but he's burrowed. Any ideas? Thank you much, Joshy |

There are different species of pistol shrimp so that is probably what it is.
