    It's doesn't feed on algae. It's filter tiny particles from the water using it's feather-like arms.

    Freshman: Your picture shows a Singapore Wood Shrimp according to this article Freshwater Shrimp in the Aquarium at TheKrib.com.

    In that article there's also a Mountain Shrimp that looks quite different from the Wood Shrimp.

    Well, I am not the expert in shrimps but that's what I read before...
