Do look like ghost shrimp but never see such big size before.
Your pond may contain some rich natural food for this ghost shrimp to feed and grow to this size, then later can scoop out feed to aros.

Dun look like a ghost shrimp, but could be another similar species judging from the pincer. Ghost shrimps dun have such thick And dark pincer.
