Would someone tell me how to post a pic. I just got a little guy from the pet store that I need help identifying. The guy at Petco told me that he was a Blue Shrimp. I "googled" some pics though, and none of the blue shrimp seem to look like him. Is he really a crawfish or what. Regardless he's pretty cool. When I put him in one of my Plecos had just died. The next day all that was left was a little fish skull under the driftwood. Also, I'd appreciate some advice on feeding him. Is he o.k. on just what makes it to the bottom?
Help identify please.

Well assuming you have a scanner or a digital camera you can host pictures at photo bucket. I'm on my laptop at the moment so I don't have the link but I think it's Photobucket.com . Pretty easy sight to use for photo sharing and 100% free. I've seen blue lobsters at Petco but I've never seen shrimp there. My best fish store in my area happens to be a WELL run petco so I'm there often. You said crawfish so I'm assuming you have doubts weather it's a shrimp. I can't find anything on blue lobsters as I've seen them at Petco but it may be a starting place for you. The ones I've seen were like large crawdads in freshwater... Hope that helps.

Thanks Neo. Here is a pic. Can you guys tell? He does have a slightly blue tint, but I wouldn't say it's very dark.
"blue crawfish" from GIS. They're usually called blue crayfish or blue lobsters at LFS. Probably what you got... There is a significant phylogenetic gap between shrimps and lobsters, and that doesn't look much like a shrimp to me.
