SEXY ANEMONE SHRIMP (Thor amboinensis) - ©aquariumdomain.com The Sexy Anemone Shrimp is named for its unusual body movements. When walking, it sways its abdomen back and forth with exotic flair. In addition to this fascinating behavior, the Sexy Anemone Shrimp is also uniquely dressed in a reddish brown body dotted with brilliant white spots. These characteristics make the Sexy Anemone Shrimps enchanting to watch. Native to the reefs of the Indo-Pacific, this 1-1/2” member of the Hippolytidae family is usually found amongst the tentacles of an anemone. Most are equally fearless as they are beautiful and will scavenge in any area in search of meaty foods. The Sexy Anemone Shrimp is a relatively fast grower and will molt about once a month.
