35ppt Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 My wallet already hid itself. Lol. And don't forget to budget for all the fun things there are to do in the chicagoland area. Of course a trip to the Shedd Aquarium seems appropriate (and not inexpensive). Then you can all drop a little hint in the comment box that they should have some dwarf FW shrimps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soothing Shrimp Posted November 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 Nope. They have them set up already. You provide the shrimp. Usually through mail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillznglass Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 This thread makes me drool a little bit. Shrimp spot forum dinner and show off table required.
