Bamboo shrimp are not considered nekton; they are classified as benthic organisms. Nekton refers to actively swimming aquatic animals, like fish and squid, that can move against currents. In contrast, bamboo shrimp primarily inhabit the substrate of freshwater environments and use their specialized appendages to filter feed from the water column. Thus, they are more accurately categorized as part of the benthic community rather than the nektonic one.
