Hi everybody,
I am new to this and wondered if somebody could tell me what sort of shrimp these are! I brought the wood from a live tank at pets at home for my tank, man just put it in a plastic bag with no water, I placed it in my tank and within 10 mins out came at least 4 shrimp I now have seen 7! I have a 240 litre tank and then seem to get on with my fish and all well but would like to know what they are! Pets at home aren’t very helpful, thank you

They are bamboo shrimps Atyopsis moluccensis. They are filter feeders and need careful feeding, several members have these shrimps and will be able to help further.
