Hey Guys,

I recently purchased 10 Australian Amano Shrimp (Caridina Typus) from an online shop upon opening the package I found what looks to be Ghost or Paratya australiensis. What do you guy think???

As above 100% not Caridina typus.  Someone on the AL and QLDAF forums posted a similar story a week ago.. paid top dollar for the wrong shrimp. IMO the seller has no excuse given the number of clear photos around and the fact that C. typus look very distinctive.  If you're going to sell plants or animals at least *try* to get the ID as close as practical.  Don't even start me on mislabeled and misidentified  plants!!!!!
