Looking for some input. I am attempting a rescue on a shrimp. The guy who gave it to me said it was an African Blue Shrimp. I can't find anything about it. I've seen some things saying that sometimes crawfish are called blue shrimp. I've seen crawfish and this isn't like any I've ever seen. This thing looks like a shrimp you would buy in the grocery store. I'm pretty sure it was ignored in this guys tank. He was going to "get rid" of it because it always hid and he was afraid it would eat his fish.
Right now it is in a 55 gallon community aquarium and hides. I'm afraid he's not eating. I have an established 10 gallon with a single betta inside. I'm thinking that might be the best home for him. I would appreciate any information you might give. I don't want the rescue to turn into a disaster.
Is it really an "African Blue Shrimp?"
What does it eat?
What are the best tank mates?
Thank you all...
