Anyone ever kept one of these?
My LFS has a few in stock. Seem like a prawn behavior wise. No claws like a mantis, just feet like a cleaner. They're a good 2-2.5" or so. They eat frozen well, and bury in the sand when scared. TBH, they remind me of tiny rock lobsters.
Wondering if they're reef compatible but can't find a latin name for them or anyone who has actually kept them before.
To add, I'd probably be putting them with a Pseudochromis cyanotaenia and a pair of clowns in a nano with macroalgae, a few different types of xenia, some shrooms, palys, and a rainbow bubbletip. Not worried about the dottyback going after the shrimp as it's less than half the size of the shrimp...
