The Monkey Shrimp, Saron marmoratus, also known as the Saron Shrimp, Common Marble Shrimp, Long Arms Marble Shrimp, and Buffalo Shrimp, has a brown body with green spots and varied white speckling. Sometimes at night, its body can appear as a deep red color. It is a nocturnal shrimp that prefers areas of complete darkness so it is best housed in a tank with plenty of live rock hiding places. It eats a carnivorous diet consisting of brine and mysis shrimp, flake food, and other frozen meaty preparations. It is peaceful, non-aggressive, easy to care for, and reef safe making it an excellent choice for most home aquariums. Males and females vary in appearance, with males having feathery cirri appendages.

These little alien looking creatures are truly a joy to watch. Arrived perfectly healthy and have fattened up quite a bit while cleaning the cave and crevices in my tank.
