Also known as Striped Shrimp or Red Striped Shrimp, they feed on Aiptasia anemones in a reef environment. While a single shrimp can feed on Aiptasia, it does best when part of a group as they work together to hold the anemone down. In addition to feeding on Aiptasia, they also perform the important work of scavenging and cleaning fish from skin parasites.
