Yellownose Shrimpgoby

Found singly or in pairs, sharing their burrow with an alpheid shrimp, hovering close to home, over rubble and sandy areas of deep coastal sand flats and slopes.

Shrimp Gobies live a symbiotic relationship with snapping shrimps.
The Gobies stand guard while the shrimps play "housekeeper" to their burrow, continually digging and cleaning the sand. The Gobies will signal when predators are near.
