I Re-did my WHOLE tank... All 90 pounds of rock were removed and 75% of it RO dipped and this came out of THE last rock !
What is he?

Not sure I would have been so quick with the death sentence. Looks like a cool shrimp. IMO most shrimp are harmless, beneficial additions to a reef. Esp. rare ones like this.Sorry to say, he's not with us anymore...
Mantis shrimp are an exception and aren't really shrimp anyway.
Brad said:I think it was very unlikely that this fellow was responsible for any deaths. It does look like a harmless shrimp, similar to a coral banded.
I also don't think that the R/O dip was a good idea. You likely harmed a lot of life on your LR.
luckycat said:When you say RO dip, do you dip in saltwater or just plain RO water (w/no salt)? I've heard of people dipping lr in super salty water to get the critters to come out...
