The shrmps in this tank are of the kind
known as silver ,shrimps. They are almost
transparent and about an inch and half or an
inch and three-q uarters in length. They are al
ways in motion, quick swimmers. and make
abrupt turns as they swim. They are placed in
the tank as scavengers; they have great appe-
tltes and are all the time looking for something
to eat; in the water as they swim, or in the
gravel at the bottom of the tank. They pick up
little bits Of scraps that the crabs and other
crustaceans have cast aside, and they help to
keep The tank clean. Sometimes when they are
searching the gravel for food the crabs catch
and eat one OF them.
-, The kilies are put into the tank to give it a
little variety. They are very small. less than an
inch in length each, but very sprghtly little
swimmers. Spry as they are, they are some
times caught by the crabs. A crab the other
