I have recently gotten a green galaxea coral and has been in my aquarium for all of a month now and upon close observation i have noticed a clear bodied crustecian that looks like a small shrimp about as long as a fingernail it's eyes have the same milky white tips as the coral does and is hiding in it by having those characteristics. the coral is doing fine and there is no damage done to it. My point being is that is this shrimp like creature good or bad? any answers would be greatly appreciated sorry no pics.

maybe its a "sexy" shrimp or a juvenile one...cant say with out a picture im not pro but there are alot of shrimp out there lol, but...as long as your coral isnt stressing id just keep an eye on it.. it probably came with the coral to begin with being that you havent has it long. maybe its a baby harlequin..
