Ghost Shrimp and Bladder Snails

  

Ghost Shrimp            

Palaemonetes paludosus

Ghost Shrimp can be used as food for animals that eat small crustaceans. Ghost shrimp are also just fun to watch in an aquarium.

These shrimp are 2.0cm to 3.5cm long.

Ghost shrimp are also known as glass shrimp.

Ø Bladder snail

Physa fontinalis

 

These simple snails are 0.5cm to 1.0cm long. They are good algae eaters in large numbers, and like the ghost shrimp are eaten by certain animals.

Bladder snails are also known as pond snails. (That is original!)
