Tidepool Tim says,  “Caprellidae is a family of amphipods named “skeleton shrimp” for their transparent, slender bodies. You can see their bones through their skin! We find these shrimp embedded in fine filaments of seaweed, hydroids, sponges, and bryozoans. Some species can even change color to camouflage with their background!”
