California bay ghost shrimp

Has anybody ever had one of these in there tank? They are all over the place in the bay. I use them for fish bait. I found a web site that sells them for 17.00!!!

I no your not supposed to take things from the wild and put them in your tank. But your legally allowed to take 50 of them here.

Dose anybody have any input on them Good shrimp? Bad shrimp?

heres the link i found on them. They have alot more color to them in the wild. They are white, Pink, or even red.

No clue.

I would try asking someone in the Orange Coast College Aquarium Center or one of the public aquariums since you live in Ca. Cabrio public aquarium probably has some. Yeah I know hours drive but you could probably contact by email or they may even just list info on their site.

 

If you have a temperate setup, it would probably do OK, but otherwise, I'd steer clear of them, as they likely won't do well at tropical temps.

 

i could ''give'' you one i catch them 20 minutes from my house the biuld deep burrows and should be kept in 65-70 i have had them before
