Description
- Peaceful shrimp which uses its front appendage to make a snapping noise which scares away potential danger. The most fascinating thing about this animal is the symbiotic relationship it shares with watchman/shrimp gobies.
- Their name comes from the loud cracking noise made by their large claw.
