Cleaner Shrimp, AKA Skunk Cleaner Shrimp
Lysmata amboinensis
Biggest Benefits:  This shrimp will groom parasites and debris from fishes.  Plus, they are so colorful & pretty and move around alot making for a very interesting tank resident.
Size & Required Tank Size:  They grow to about 2" in length and can be in tanks from Nano size & up.
Livespan: 2-3 yrs, but they are good years
Diet:  They pretty much fend for themselves, but will also eat most aquarium foods
Cautions:  Do not add excess to the water if you have a cleaner shrimp because it could cause premature molting & shorten their life span.
