Sorry to bring back up an old topic, but Kross, the shrimp in the last two pics are most likely Atyoida pilipes; "Green Philipine Atya," if they look anything like the one here:

The 1st picture looks like a red nose mosquito shrimp... But the "red nose" don't seem to be like the normal length.. Any experts can identify? :)
