Id this shrimp

Post by Ghazanfar Ghori »

Got a few of these as contaminant in an order of amano shrimp.
Any idea what these are?

I have no expertise on shrimp whatsoever, but it looks a little like the last one on this page.

Cardina SP, so may be closely related to amanos?

Indian Whisker Shrimp - Segrest carries them - so it's likely that's the source of the contamination.
