Squat Shrimp

Alternative names: Sexy Shrimp, Thor amboinensis

The Squat Shrimp is a small, spotted shrimp that can be found in shallow coral reefs across the Indian and West Pacific Oceans. It has a olive brown color covered with white patches edged with thin blue lines.
The name "sexy shrimp" was given thanks to their habit of provocatively lifting and waving their tails.
