Description
Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.
The Camel Shrimp is valuable addition to any clean-up crew since they will help clean the aquarium. They are nearly self-sufficient in a well-stocked aquarium. This shrimp is famous for scooting in and out of the small crevices cleaning vigorously. They will need lots of hiding places especially when they are molting. The Camel Shrimp can be kept singly or in a group. Be sure to provide peaceful tank mates that will not make a meal out of this shrimp. Their diet consists mostly of organic debris, but should be supplemented. This shrimp is not considered reef safe since they are known to nibble on anemones and soft corals. It is easy to see how this shrimp got its name with the shape of their carapace.
