    It defiantly is a shrimp I'm sure. My guess is its either a species of anemone shrimp or a baby cleaner shrimp of any of the variety. Kind of hard to tell at this point.

    Hmm. I dont think it really looks like either. It kinda looks like a shrimp on here. What do you think. Like the clear Harpiliopsis spiniger male?
