Bamboo Shrimp

Bamboo Shrimp (Atyopsis moluccensis), also known as Wood Shrimp or Flower Shrimp, are peaceful filter feeders with fan-like appendages used to catch microscopic food from the water. They range in color from reddish-brown to tan with a lighter stripe down the back. Ideal for mature, well-filtered aquariums with good water flow, they thrive when provided with suspended food particles in the current.
