these kinda shrimp normally grow about 2 or 3 cm, quite small. some freshwater shrimp can grow to 5cm.

As for pic, just google it, you will find quite a lot.
 
I have plent of amanos. They eat lots of algae as long as you dont give them too much other food,flake etc.
They dont create much mess and dont load up your bio system hardly-i recommend them-great cheeky characters. i have 6 in an 85 litre tank no problems.... :good:
 
They are great shrimps :good: Very active and fairly hardy compared to other dwarf shrimps. The females can grow to 5cm as dingweding said.

Here's a pic of mine eating spinach. Not very clear but you get the idea :rolleyes:
