Ghost Shrimp

Ghost shrimp are small, transparent crustaceans often called glass shrimp or grass shrimp. They’re known for their clear, almost invisible bodies, making them resemble ghosts, hence the name. These shrimp are typically found in freshwater and brackish water habitats like ponds and streams. In aquariums, they serve as scavengers, feeding on algae and leftover food, which helps keep tanks clean. They are peaceful creatures, suitable for community tanks with non-aggressive fish. Ghost shrimp reproduce in captivity, with females carrying eggs until they hatch into tiny shrimp larvae. #aquarium #shrimp #ghostshrimp #plantedtank #plantedaquarium #shrimptank
