The body of the shrimp has a half-gray and half-gray color, symmetrical in two colors almost perfectly in the tail. Two more of it are also orange and gray.

The probability of meeting rare lobsters is very low, only 1/50 million, said Lobster Research scientists, the University of Maine. They claim that the rare level of two-color lobster is second only to albino shrimp, with a chance of seeing 1/100 million.
