Pearl Shrimp

[Michael Roth]

Never had inverts before, and purchased pearl shrimp the other day. I looked for information about these creatures, and came up empty. Any information would be appreciated.

I've never heard of pearl shrimp. Could you describe him? Ghost shrimp have a 'pearly' look to them.

Here's a quick link that shows a ghost shrimp and an amano shrimp. Does yours look like either of these two?

Forgot the link. http/www.aquariumfish.net/catalog_pages/...hrimp_ghost.htm

I'm almost 100% positive those are Ghost Shrimp though I've never seen any with that much of the white stuff on their shell. I have seen them with that kind of white spotting but never that much.
