    Very often I found this creature in my shrimp tank. It looks like dragonfly. Is it because I don't have fish in my tank. Can any bros advise how to stop this.Thanks

    It's a damselfly larva. If you have medium to large fish, you can feed it to them.

    Do you have your tank in the open as in the corridor or the balcony? Or even garden?

    There should not be damselflys or dragonflys inside the house...
