Hi
Can you please help me identify this shrimp? It was accidentally added into the bag when I bought some amano shrimp. It’s over 2inches, it’s much bigger than my Amanos and cherry shrimps. I currently have baby cherry shrimp and I don’t want to introduce an aggressive shrimp that would eat them.

It looks like Macrobrachium lamarrei/Whisker shrimp. I don't have experience with them, I've read that they'll have a go at weak, sick and young fellow inhabitants though.
