    Hi there!

    Just now, I bought $10 of 100 pcs of Malayan shrimps ('M' size). I'm a noob so not sure if they are really Malayan. I was told Malayans can be white/transparent at young age..

    Are these Malayans? And do male malayans have claws? I count them to be around 10 (easy to catch as they are really big), while the rest are too small to tell if they have claws or not.. I don't dare to put them into my planted yet.

    Ghost shrimp. So it was you! :O

    You can go back ask them if you need to change.

    Oh my friend asked you yesterday! Thanks a lot bro!

    Too far for me to return. Train, LRT, walking.. too much time will be spent. I hope the other smaller ones are Malayans.

    Malayan Shrimps or Ghost Shrimps

    The easy way is take a look at close up shots from web. They are similar to cherries in physical sense.

    Anyway, a planted can have 2-3 ghost shrimps. Their also excellent scavengers like cherries and malayans. Just that algae is not top few of in their diet.

    Oh ya! Thanks for advice.. Appreciate it. It would be great if the ghost shrimps are as small as the cherries. But they can get so big in size.
