I have them in Pickles tank ....I try not to get too attached since they will probably become lunch, but they seem to last a while. They are sorta tough to see, I've seen them swim right in front of Pickle and she didn't notice. I have atleast 6 of them in there right now.

they are actually really fast so its hard for a turtle to catch but they do it eventually

I heard somewhere that the Ghost Shrimp are low in nutritional value
although I guess that's ok because regular shrimp is really high in protein.
