Pontonides unciger
This little shrimp (less than haft a cm long) live on whip coral. Whenever I have seen them I have found them in pairs and they usually dangle a "fishing line" in order to attract food.
Coral Reef. Whip Coral. Spotted at Arthur's Rock
@andrew - this is not a Zanzibar Whip Coral Shrimp.
Zanzibar Whip Coral Shrimp has variable humps on thorax and abdomen.
I am alos referring to the Book, Crustacea Guide of the World by Helmut Debelius, Page 194 & 195
