I get a large bag of frozen shrimp, not those tiny salad ones, with the tail on, raw for under $9. They're at Walmart, such a great deal. Puff Puff and my cichlids go nuts for them. I give Puff Puff the end with the shell and the cichlids the rest.
Glad you like em, I came home from church today, and found Samson half buried very cool to see. Thought you guys might like to see them?

Whereas when you buy frozen it's usually frozen when it's very fresh, before being shipped out to the store. Kept frozen, imho is the freshest way to go. (Unless, of course you are lucky enough to have access to truly fresh, fresh!)
Been buying frozen foods for my fish for 30 years.
You are getting sleepy... you only hear the sound of my voice... you must do water changes... water changes... water changes... water changes...
Awe how cute! Samson can definitely make anyone want a fahaka!
For those that are looking for raw seafood, I found that the easiest place to find raw seafood is any asian markets, there is one in BC called TNT, and it has tons of raw seafood. We bought 30 small crabs for $4.00 they were frozen, raw. & Our mbu just LOVES them!
I just got a major SCORE!!! I am picking up a 180 Gallon tank for Samson tomorrow, with stand, lights, heaters 1 eheim 2217 and 2 Emperor 400 filters.
I got it for a smokin deal, Samson is gonna be in heaven LOL! WOW what a find! He's gonna look so tiny LOL! 6 feet long 24 inchs deep and high, its a beast of a tank
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

No kidding. It'll be SO much fun setting that tank up! I know you're good for pictures but just need to remind you. We need pictures!
PS: I got some of the SAPs yesterday, I'll put them up when they're ready.
