Shrimps of the Round Table

Saw this at my LFS. It made me smile so I thought I would share:

Haha! Whats going on? Gotta love the shrimps!! 🙂

Superb odd for them to be circled like that though,where was the filter outlet in the tank? They usually are hanging around that to filter feed.

1. Mass hypnosis
2. Local therapy group session
3. They were watching a comedy act in the middle but it swam off
4. None of the above

(The water was flowing into the tank from directly above so MirandaB gets the points for this one)

I'd love a couple of bamboo shrimp but they'd get too big for my tank and would scare the hell out of my tiny fish 😀

I'd be worried about them getting enough food. They do fascinate me though. Every time I see them in the shop I think "Jazz Hands!"

They can be fed by finely crushing flake food and dropping it into the current.
The only trouble with them is that they can go walkabout if they're not happy,which only happens if there is nothing for them to perch on in the flow.
They tend to then climb up looking for somewhere, which is usually up one of the pipes and then out through the gap.
