FishRFriendz Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 Sakura/Fire red cherry shrimp (Neocaridina) 10+2 - $29 shipping included 20+5 - $40 shipping included Mostly unsexed juvenile, less bioload for shipping and better acclimation to new tanks. Limit 1 order per person. All shrimp come with some moss. Ships Mon-Tues with USPS Priority 2-3 day. So if it takes 3 days it will still make it by Friday. My params:TDS 200-250KH 4-5GH 8-11 I've put a limit on orders so as to not get overwhelmed with the tedious task of catching shrimp for hours, and I price them very low to get more people into keeping shrimp. I'm not a wholesaler and I don't believe that people ordering large quantities are doing so for just themselves. These shrimp multiply exceeding fast so why waste money, sit back and enjoy watching the tank grow!I started my colonies with 2 male 6 female juveniles from Petco mid January 2017, split the colony after the first batch between a 5 and a 10 gallon, by July there was about 1000 in the 5 gallon and if it weren't for fish predation in the 10 gallon I'd probably have had over 2000.So I always recommend just getting 10+2 as chances are you'll end up with more shrimp than you know what to do with in a few months.

Cassiopeia Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 Just curious, what do you normally charge for cherry shrimp? I have never ordered fish or creatures through the mail before, just purchased in-store. Is it overnight shipping? Do I have to be there to receive it? I would be watching tracking info to make sure they didn't sit outside. Sorry for all of the questions. A new tank should be ready to add fish in the next day or so. It's just a 20 gallon that will have a school of rasboras with some live plants. Can I add the shrimp to a new tank or should they be added after a while? I'm not new to keeping fish, but it's been several years since I have had cherry shrimp. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
