There's a Mosquito?

Yes, there's one Mosquito Shrimp (Palaemon Scarletti) in the RH Fish Tank, added today. The other 19 will be added next week, or the week after.

It's behavior is unique because it swims with its front limbs hanging as if it is hovering, and lands itself ever so delicately on its longer front limbs; much like a mosquito.
