Crystal Shrimp spawn in lush caves

Crystal shrimp are clear shrimp that are pink/blue and are about the size of a baby sea turtle. When killed they drop themselves which can be cooked and eaten quickly by players or given raw to axolotls to heal them.

An interesting feature these shrimp have is that they will pulsate a small "glow" and in large numbers would look amazing in dark ponds.

You could collect Crystal shrimp in a bucket but unlike other mobs you can put up to 5 in one bucket.  Breading them would require you to make flakes out of fish and sprinkling them which will have a chance of putting them in love mode.

We are going to need more glowy creatures other than the glowsquid so that they can complement eachother in dark areas so Crystal Shrimp would be great.

  I don't see why not. They should throw in some more colors than just pink and blue, though.

  I really like ornamental shrimp in real life, and they have lots of beautiful colour morphs. I think a shrimp would be a nice tiny water mob, rather than just adding another fish. It also helps to keep the underground aquifers still feeling a little alien, and makes it seem like there's a bit of a food chain in there. Since shrimp can breed quickly from eggs and survive with low amounts of food, it also makes sense as a creature you could find even in underground puddles.
