    It depends on what you are looking for... if you are looking for a bag of shrimps then C328 is not a bad choice. But if you want a particular size in smaller quantity, NA old uncle will choose for you I remember I used to buy 2 specimens at a time at NA

    Polyart also sell it in small number.

    By the way I found that bigger yamato shrimp have better survival rate. Anyone can comfirm it? I did acclimate it using dripping method

    Yea. You use air/co2 hose with valve attached, put your new shrimps into a bucket, put one side of the house in your tank and the other in or on top of bucket, let the water drip from your tank to your bucket slowly.

    Bro.. Any budget for this yamato shrimp? Size or anything? Usually price is around $1.00 and If you are looking for size.. Yun Feng which is near your area has just brought in some.. Big ones small ones also have.. Maybe can ask him to give you more discount if you buy ten and above..

    Sidetrack a bit...YunFeng got any ottos? Been looking around but not been seeing them in LFS near my area.
