Love shrimo and have had them before ^.^ was wondering who else has had experience with these little guys

I know that Aron and Lori raise shrimp.....watch getting them from Ebay....there's been some bad things going on with shrimp sellers/buyers.....just check there history/reputation remarks to separate the bad guys out..

yikes i dont think i would ever buy fish or inverts off ebay. I wanted to see if anyone here had a colony with some to spare...

I kept about 10 different kinds of fresh water dwarf shrimp several years back.....



It took me a couple of years of selective breeding to get my regular Cherries to look like these guys. I was working towards a Burgundy color, but I switched gears and stopped keeping shrimp about 5 years ago.





At one time I had Red Cherry, Yellow, Green, Bee, Crystal Red, Crystal Black, Tiger, Blue Tiger, Pearl Blue, Snowball, etc.  I sold hundreds of boxes, or thousands of shrimp on E-Bay.....

Thanks Jon.  I often find myself wishing Danios would hold still during a photo session as well as shrimp do!  LOL

I have bunchs of em.  Would be glad to send you some in the Spring.  Too cold now.  They live and breed in my Endler tanks, started out with a few 18 mo ago, now I have many.  Really interesting and cute little creatures.  I love to watch them with a mag. glass.
