Macrobrachium Lanchesteri???

[Mark Livermore]

Hi all, first post but been a lurker for a while.

Just thought i would share a few pictures of the 'Amano Shrimp' recently purchased from P@H. Not an expert by any means, but i thought these looked more like Macrobrachium Lanchesteri, can anyone confirm?

Thanks,
Mark

Hi all,
Definitely a Macrobrachium species. You can see the claws on the bottom photo.

I have to agree with Darrel. These will not become a big help in cleaning up unless you need them to clean up some small fish or fry.

It is upside down and in ambush mode waiting for the camera man to get near enough to grab with its pincers.
