"These shrimp inhabit shallow areas of the sea and are nocturnal, hiding under sand during the day. By night, they go out and hunt shellfish before returning to the safety of their sand.Unlike other shrimp they don't carry their eggs around with them in their abdomen. They are famous for being a tasty varity of shrimp and are perfect for tempura and sushi."
