4 months ago i bought 2 shrimps or crayfish from my local store with the name of "camaron burrito" but i cannot find any pics of then in google or the id of then so i hope any of you guys would know what kind of shrimps are those

they are very docile they live in my 20 gallon tank and they fed on filtration

oh cool now i know where they come from when i bought 2 of then i keeped first with some mbunas they lived fine untill i bought a large jewel cichlid he bite a chunk of tail from the shrimp so i kwl it was time to move then lol
 
How big are they? With those thickened front legs and nodes, they look more like close cousins of the bamboo shrimp, atyopsis gabonensis. (Vampire or viper shrimp.)
