Thanks Albert. I have pictures of a few shrimp on the coral, but not of the Gobies yet. Seen them, but haven't been able to take a picture that isn't blurry. :)
Yea, these Crabs are hard to get a good complete picture of them.
Try to look for other Shrimps like Fingerprint Shimps, Imperial Coral Shrimp, Hairy Goby, Panda Goby that also lives among those branching Acropora corals too.
