I am sorry to bug but can I get some ID?

[kpeeke]

I have been looking at this forum, other websites and through a couple book for the last few weeks trying to pin down an ID on this shrimp I picked up from a LFS. She was labled just as a freshwater shrimp. I know she is a macrobrachium species but could someone narrow it down a little more? I would really appreciate andy imput. Thanks in advance!

Macrobrachium rosenbergii....Giant freshwater shrimp, can get up to a foot in body length.

That is what I was leaning towards. Thanks very much for helping this newbie out Mustafa!
