One of my Ghost Shrimp just happened to pose for me.. this one is 1/2 an inch in size but it will grow up to 2 inches. I have 5 Ghost Shrimp in with my Striped Mud Turtle and they all get along fine. They are freshwater shrimp and sometimes called Glass Shrimp. The body is transparent and an orange to yellow colored spot is visible in the center of the tail.

Excellently taken!! I used to have one, until it began to eat all my sleeping fish! Wish I could have these again... Love this image! L/f

What an amazing capture! It would be so easy to miss, but you've caught the detail perfectly.

Your view into other worlds through the camera lens is very engaging. Love the fine detail of the shrimp and sand granules. l/f
