Hi - sorry - Digicam stil on the fritz - and I did try a search, but came up dry...
Shrimplike (amphapod?) that swims and crawls like its partially paraylized --- two longer legs (?) come out of the middle of the tail section.
The biggest I've seen is probabally 3/4".
Any ideas?
THanks!

Bang Guy - thank you- I think this is very close. Actually your picture is a better look than I have been able to get ;) I think mine have shorter antanne and are not so nicely patterned with tiger stripes...
The link NM Reef posted answered my primary concern --- I thought it seemed like they were deformed (limited gene pool?) - but they are fine -- flattened and opposing direction legs are normal - the "kickers" :eek:
They are breeding well, i see more and more every day. Very cool I LOVE REEFKEEPING!!!
Hey Bang Guy, when you sell you house do the tanks come in the deal??? :D
