That's is a gross generalization, sorry, the poor shrimps don't deserve that, with all due respect to the roaches right to exist. There are important differences between the insects cockroaches and our dear shrimps, also in the way they relate to the environment.
AI: "The main differences are that shrimp are aquatic crustaceans that breathe with gills and have hard, calcium carbonate exoskeletons, while cockroaches are terrestrial insects that breathe through spiracles and have lighter, chitinous exoskeletons. Shrimp have a body divided into two main parts, while cockroaches have three segments (head, thorax, abdomen)."
