Is the monsoon season over? Cos at Aq*r St*r, lots of cleaner shrimp for sale. But they still do not want to bring down the price, selling at $10.

Anyone knows which LFS has been selling cheap ?

my opinion, if u stay near those LFS that is selling cleaner shrimp, why dun just get it, u travel to other places also need to spend $ on the trips. ;)

Everything's sold. Back in 2yrs time.

If it's a WRX, it gotta be STI.

But the fire shrimps cheap ?

Ya few months back look everywhere but no sight of these shrmips.

ONE big question is how do u introduce the shrimp to your tank ?

Twice (1 time cleaner ) & last night it was a fire shrimp, I use net try to let it crawl to live rock but it jump & miss the rock & kinda of free fall down to the sand base. Then it just stay motionless there. this morning found it dead stuck in a hole in a live rock. This happen once also with a ckeaner shrimp.

Means the shock kill the shrimp ?

I believe Cleaner Shrimp is very sensitive! You do need to acclimatise it well before letting into your tank....besides you have to slowly lower it into your fish tank as well...(was advised by a LFS in balestia)

Sigh! I just bought recently 7 cleaner shrimp from a fellow reefer and I think I have lost 5 !!! :cry2::cry: (Went MIA in my temporary LR storage tank) Hopefully it is hiding itside!!!SIGH!!!!

Recently I notice that most of the cleaner shrimp in LFS are very very small....sigh! <_<

hey try on marine life hobbyist aquaium at hong leong garden centre at west coast rooad. . alot of cleaner shrimp. really alot !!!

at 12 dollars.

thanks I already bought at the shop the 1st bro said at $10.

A lot then they sell lower at $10 maybe.

Also I think LFS price them according to size.

Lower slowly so your fish wont treat it as food & bite away b4 u can blink your eye.

i lost twice 1 cleaner & 1 fire just sunday cos I try place it on LR but it swim/jump out of net then free fall go straight down to sand base & became like shock or something never move a bit & died next day.

Buy 7 lost 5 ? Thats very bad. For the shrimps ! as well as your pocket

      FOC Coral Bandid Shrimp

      Hi, I'd need to give away my CBS named Shadow. He's a decent sized guy, been with me for a few months, a darling of a shrimp. But he's started attacking my small fish, fish have gone missing through the months, few have died the past week. Unsure him or anything else. My current fish are all healthy. Free of charge. Just promise to take good care of him. Please quarantine him first, or put him in a fishless setup for a few weeks. Self collect at Indus road. Cheers.
