What is your favorite shrimp?

[EllisJuan]

I currently have a peppermint cleaner, blood red fire shrimp, and a harlequin in my tank. I am thinking about adding another shrimp and was just wondering what everyones favorite is. It would be cool to have something rare/colorful.

my favorite is my coral banded. not because of the color but because of the personality. i have two and they spend most of their time on oppisite ends of the tank. after one of them molts it will run over and start a fight with the other one. he always looses, by the end of the fight he is missing both his big claws and has to run and hide until he molts again this has happened at least a half dozen times.... funny to watch!!!

I love the Skunk or scarlet cleaner shrimp the best because they cling to my hand whenever I mess with my tank. Currently have 2 skunks and a peppermint.:beer:

Harlequin shrimp if you are able to feed them. Alpheus Soror pistol shrimp otherwise.

Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it.

I love my blood shrimp. Currently setting up a small nano to keep a pair of harlequins tho.

I already have a blood shrimp, and he is awesome. I am just looking for even more diversity then the blood, peppermint, harlequin, and pistol I already have...lol.

Peacock Mantis Shrimp....mmmm love mine. Reef safe favie is prob the common cleaner, happy active and fun to watch imo.

Mantis. But I ended up adopting all Boyfriend's hermits instead. :C

But as for true shrimp, I like some of the dwarf shrimp (these are mostly freshwater). Saltwater, I'd have to say either skunk cleaners or peppermints.
