Hi,

If you go for the types that don't have pincers you should be ok. Its the pincers that they use to catch and kill fish. Good types are amano shrimp, ghost shrimp, cherry shrimp and fan/bamboo shrimp. If you do a search on google images you will find loads of pictures. http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=143935&hl= heres a pic of my bamboo shrimp

What fish do you plan to keep them with as some fish will eat them.
