Hitchhikers - shrimp and limpet


Zauss

Recommended Posts

I got a hitchhiker shrimp and limpet with the liverock for my new 7g and was hoping you guys could tell me if they're reefsafe.

 

The shrimp is pretty generic looking. The only thing I can really think of that may be distinguishing is the little white (perhaps silver?) semicircles behind its eyes. Also it's about 0.5" in length.

The limpet is orange and about the size of a nickel or a quarter. I've heard they eat algae but can damage coral if they tread over them. Does anyone have any experience with this species?

Thanks for the help!
