Banded coral shrimp

Banded coral shrimps are usually found in coral reefs and rocks in shallow coastal waters. These shrimps are known for being cleaner fish, as they feed on leftover food of large fish such as moray and groupers. This role of theirs means that they can stay close to large fish without being attacked.
