Nifty new shrimp-Palaemonetes paludosus

[plecoperson]

Wheee! I just got these today and they are really cool. Fun to watch the food go right on into the gut. Plus, they have huge eyes on stalks, so I'm happy.

And they are huge compared to the cherries and tigers I have (the big females are over 2" long).

I've got 4 of those in my 30g hex tank. At least I think they are the same kind. They're some of the hardiest shrimp I have kept. One of the most aggressive too.
