Deep-sea
corals are often considered as "condominiums of the deep,"
because they provide habitat for a large variety of organisms.
This shrimp, which we think is Lebbeus schrenki,
is commonly found on a wide variety of corals.
In shallow waters, this shrimp is a "cleaner shrimp,"
cleaning dead tissue and parasites from fishes.
It might be conducting similar activities on corals,
so perhaps corals should be considered as food markets as well as houses.
