Actually the shrimp are probably native shrimp, that is how they get mixed in
with natives. Ghost/grass shrimp are very common around here, at least two or
three different kinds. I can catch them by the bucket full and I often catch
other fish at the same time. I sell them to local pet shops sometimes. They
tell their customers they are tropical shrimp. It's the big lie, anything for
sale in a petshop is tropical.
