Fred H. 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 That should have been Spotted Shrimp. This was to be a spotted cleaner shrimp. There are numerous species of these in the tropics in a rainbow of colors. Thanks everyone for their kind words, Fred Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

agn54 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2011 This fly is ridiculous! Don't take this the wrong way, bit if you do decide to fish with it I hope you don't catch anything. I'd hate to see a red destroy such a beautiful work of art with its crushing plate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
