Ghost Shrimp
$2.95
These diminutive crustaceans, scientifically identified as Palaemonetes paludosus, are prized by aquarists for their translucent bodies and practical utility. Ghost shrimp excel as biological filtration agents, methodically consuming excess food and organic waste that accumulates on tank substrates. Their peaceful temperament makes them compatible with most community tank inhabitants, while their remarkable hardiness allows them to thrive across a range of water conditions. As economical additions to any freshwater setup, they provide both aesthetic interest through their subtle movements and functional benefits through their constant foraging behavior.
