FS: cherry shrimp, 20 for $20 shipped

My cherry shrimp packages contain 20 shrimp, plus a couple extras in case of DOAs. The cost is $20 including Priority shipping in an insulated box; I can get a quote on Express if you'd like. I also require the inclusion of heat packs at this time of year; the cost for a 72-hour heat pack is $3. A tracking number is complimentary. The shrimp are shipped in a breather bag (which means that your shrimp will never run out of oxygen) with a small plant to hold onto during shipping.

I will guarantee live arrival if I shipped Express, the package arrived on time, and you opened it promptly. I cannot always replace packages (this depends on how many shrimp I have left), but I can always refund.

I can also include FREE frogbit, and I can price a few plants for you if you are interested in buying those as well.

I have only one package available right now! Get it while you can!

It's just a matter of time! They breed breed breed. After this package, I'm adding some new shrimp from a new source to prevent inbreeding; once they've had sufficient time to reproduce, I'll be selling another package or two. PM me when your tank's ready and I'll let you know what the status is.

Typically between 1/2" and 3/4", though some adults may grow a bit larger and sometimes a few littler ones slip in. If you have a preference, I can try, but they're tricksy little scamps, so no guarantees when I'm trying to catch 20+ of them!

Let me know when you have cherry shrimp again please! =D I just got my tank set up, and because SYN's experiment came back with good results on TetraSafe, I used it on the tank, so the tank will be more than ready to go by the time you have more. =)

I don't have Thumbelina anymore - it's been a year since I moved. She didn't eat the adults, but she did eat most of the teeny ones.

Don't worry, I'll be posting as soon as I have more packages ready! But just so you know, your puffers might not react the same way.
