Also known as Emperor shrimp.
However, per your question, yes in fact I do know these shrimp. I met them about 4 years ago at a get together informal function. The one on the left is Larry. He is a rather extroverted type, always the life of the party, but he can get a little over the top sometimes. But all in all he is a well liked shrimp. The one on the left is Agnes. Even though 3 months younger then Larry, she is a rather old fashioned, quiet type, but when she has had too many isopods to eat, she tends to get rather boisterous, and in this state, she frequently soils herself.
Were you looking to try to get a hold of them?
