but mysid shrimp? really?

and i thought i had to pay $50 to get a starter culture...

these have very big black eyes, and are very bright orange, if that helps...

If the picture you posted is an exact match to what you have, they are not brine shrimp or mysis shrimp in my opinion.

What fish do you have in the tank? A pair of gobies or similar looking fish?

I've seen plenty of mysids in my tanks and they look nothing like the picture at the top of this thread.

Nate Bro, can you post the link where you got the example picture from?

Edit. Nevermind, I found the link. The picture you posted is a juvenile salamander.
