About this item
DESCRIPTION

Ghost shrimp, also known as 'glass shrimp" due to their transparent bodies, are an interesting addition to your tropical aquarium. They are bottom swimmers and walk along plant life collecting small particles of food that hasn't been eaten by fish. They also help keep the tank clean by eating algae, and with their transparent bodies, you can actually see the food they've eaten being digested.
