    Damn, of all the places I have been searching for these guys, I found it at a hair salon at Orchard Hotel!!

    You guys remember how some shops used to carry them in an enclosed glass sphere?

    I remember I used to keep them back when I was studying in the states and they lived for like 4 to 5 years in that enclosed sphere with no feeding or water change. However, apparently that was not really good for the shrimps. The one I saw at the hair salon was in a normal container though and it was set up quite nicely.

    You can read up about them here. http://www.petshrimp.com/hawaiianredshrimp.php

    Here's a picture I took of one of the setup.

    If you guys are interested, here's the contact: Lucky Shrimp, 9321 6155

    Yes confirm Opae Ula,
    The last batch was SEALED glass & the very much higher price tag..
    The current batch is with covers though sealed but looks like can be opened..

    i squat there 10 minute trying to look at the crown features too since it's not the same as cherry.
