Lysmata bahia [Lysmata bahia]

Description

This shrimp is a lively reef resident, typically appearing in small groups or singly as it weaves through coral rubble and rocky overhangs. With its distinctive coloration and alert posture, it’s the kind of animal divers notice as it darts out, pauses, and then slips back into shelter.
