Yes, camelbacks are known for that. They are cool looking and I wanted one, but luckily I found that out before I got one.
I have a cleaner shrimp in my 16 gal. and love him. He has a lot of personality and is always scavenging around the tank.
They can be purchased from this website. Here is the link:

A couple other common reef safe shrimp are peppermint shrimp and fire shrimp. If you shop for them on this website, the description usually tells you if they are reef compatible or not.
Good Luck!

i been trying to catch my camelback shrimp also. The method i been using is cutting a 2 liter bottle right before the neck and flipping it around to form a funnel and placing a piece of brine shrimp inside. It hasnt work yet but since theres been one close call with him almost being caught i havent seen him near my polyps in almost a week now. So before i attempt to do the trap again im just going to monitor him maybe he learned his lesson
