Lexinverts Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Hello everyone! I haven't sold here before, but I have lots of feedback on Aquabid.com and on PlantedTank.net with the same username as here. I've been breeding these Royal Blue Tigers for about 3 years now, but took about 6 months off from selling them recently in order to build my population back up. Now I am ready to let some more go. As you probably know these are rare shrimp in the US. I know of only a few other sellers who have homebred RB Tigers for sale right now (for $20-30 per shrimp). My Royal Blue bloodline is a mixture from two different sources.Get 1/4 to 1/2 inch juvies from me for $14 per shrimp.Use the same water parameters as for Orange Eye Blue Tigers. pH 6.8 - 7.4, TDS 200-250 ppm, temp 68-72 F. If you need some advice as to how to set up the tank, I am happy to provide email support with your purchase.Shipping is a flat rate of $15 via Priority Mail to anywhere in the USA. Live arrival guaranteed, with the condition that a digital photo of the shrimp in the original packaging be sent within 2 hrs of delivery to document DOAs. If necessary, I pay to re-ship. Please send payment within 24 hrs of your order via Paypal to lexinverts1 "at" gmail "dot" com. No “gift” payments, please.

Rob had a deal 10+1 for $90 I just didn't have a tank for them Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk Well, I have a no reserve auction on Aquabid for them right now, so perhaps someone here can get a better deal by bidding on them there. I do like to let the market determine the price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrimp Life Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 I don't think your asking too much $$ at all... Your price is good! Those royal blues are not easy to acquire and they are gorgeous. Last time I noticed LupDiesel sale was 5+1 for $90 including shipping... Correct me if I'm wrong?

Fishprinceofca Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 I've bought many shrimp from Lexinverts, and can attest to their quality and his attention to care. He breeds some really beautiful shrimp, especially tigers. Lexinverts, Soothing Shrimp and Shrimp Life 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wygglz Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Absolutely beautiful. I hope you still have some after I crunch numbers because I dont't think I can resist. I actually like the fact that there are inexpensive strains and more expensive ones. First of all, the breeders deserve payment for their work but it still allows those with less to spend still get into the hobby.

Soothing Shrimp Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Agreed. You are not only paying for the shrimp, but the blood/sweat/tears that the breeder has put into them. Shrimpo, Allicat, jem_xxiii and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexinverts Posted November 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Agreed. You are not only paying for the shrimp, but the blood/sweat/tears that the breeder has put into them. Ha! You know the drill. It took me at least six months to figure out how to breed them. But it was worth the effort.

Lexinverts Posted November 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 I just did to wot-fan, but now I am out. I'll have more in 3 weeks or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jem_xxiii Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 Agreed. You are not only paying for the shrimp, but the blood/sweat/tears that the breeder has put into them. in all honesty that is kind of what matters the most. someone took the time to get this strain healthy and breeding to a point where they can sell them, etc. not always so easy. Very nice shrimp Lex! those orange eggs are killer! Soothing Shrimp, Wygglz and Lexinverts 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexinverts Posted November 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 This is a crappy cell phone shot of some of these guys feasting on snowflake food. Those little guys are the 1/4 to 1/2-inch juvies that I am selling. Look at how dark blue they are! I've sold a bunch already, but there are plenty more where these came from.

Wygglz Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 I just have to chime in here. Although it would be fantastic to be one of the few who have them and just keep them a secret for a while, as most of you know, I have a big mouth. So I have to say that I just released my new batch of these less than an hour ago and they are beautiful! All arrived happy and healthy despite the extra day in shipping.
