Fish.. Simply Irresistable
Back to Killies... slowly.
Yes it's a ghost shrimp (Macrobrachium sp.), more commonly sold as feeders for predatory fish. Depending on the species, some can grow quite large and end up preying on fishes and other shrimps. I wouldn't recommend putting them together with other shrimps except for large yamatos.
Small is beautiful.

wow, thank you guys for helping. so, can it grow bigger?

I don't think it'll grow much bigger than it is right now but I could be wrong
How big is it currently? I think max size should be about 3 inches.

yea, its about 2inches plus 3 already.
