Boxing Shrimp

What is the Swell Boxer Shrimp?

The Boxer Shrimp are a very fascinating species of shrimp, they have an enlarged set of claws that resemble a set of boxing gloves. They are one of the most territorial species of shrimp and have been known to travel no further than a metre from their home in a given year. They are usually peaceful creatures when they are housed with fish and coral species but it is best to only keep one of these shrimp per aquarium as they can be quite aggressive with other shrimps and crustaceans
