The Coral Banded Shrimp is also known as Boxer Shrimp because of the stance it assumes looking like it is always ready to fight with its pinchers held high. It is a peaceful shrimp in the reef tank except it will fight with others like itself unless it is a mated pair.
As the coral reefs of the world become more endangered, addressing sustainability is the number one concern among coral growers. AquariumDepot.com has been a certified aquaculture facility since 2011. Since receiving our certification, AquariumDepot has increased the number of sustainable products to the marketplace by 90 percent. We also support organizations like ReefCause.com, who work directly with conservation groups to sustain the animals and their homes.
