The Harlequin Shrimp M added a lot of visual interest to my reef tank. It’s active and curious, and it seems to eat well on a mix of foods. After a few weeks, it’s established and not causing any issues with other inhabitants. Great addition to a mature tank.

I’ve had this shrimp for about two months now. It’s very colorful and active. I feed it a bit of algae and some mysis shrimp. It’s not aggressive and doesn’t seem to stress other fish. A good choice for reef hobbyists looking for a dynamic species.
