    I just bought a packet of what is supposed to be a mixture of different neocaridinas from C328. (those going at $8 a bag)

    When I emptied the bag at home, I was a bit disconcerted to find some brown shrimps with a distinctive beige band running through the top.

    Could they be juvenile wood shrimps? I heard they grow to a monstrous size and are carnivorous.

    I really hope I'm wrong.

    They are filter feeder and are very gentle. But I doubts it's Wood shrimps as each cost around $1.50 - $2. Most likely to be Malayan shrimps.

    RIP 1 x adolfoi, 1 x albino aeneus & 2 x panda
