    Hi guys, I've got a shrimp tank with full red and translucent cherry shrimp, tiger shrimp, bee shrimp, amanos, big cameroons, wood shrimp, green cherry (translucent), blue shrimp and indian green shrimp (really green). I'm trying to get even more different species such ninja and snowball shrimp or anything that's compatible with the rest. Where can i find them in Singapore? If anyone sees them please let me know where. I usually get mine from C328, Y618, NA and aquastar. Any other stores to recommend? Thanks.

    I got minr from C328. Clementi Florist and Aquarium. $8 for 10pcs. Nice lime green glow on it, not the transparent type of shrimp.

    Gonna borrow my friend's camera tomorrow. Will post pics this week. But here are older pics of my red cherries. My new ones are more full red and less stripes. The camera I used was not as good as the Nikon D70 I'm borrowing so hope to get good shots.

    Thanks for the info, I will go down one of this days to try my luck, I used to visit C328 once a month, but never come across the Indian Green shrimps, very curious how they look like. Hope to see your picture soon!

    You can try your luck at polyart near C328, about a month ago, they had some marble shrimps there, I thought they were malayan shrimps, but the pigmentation certainly look very different. Apparently they came from Hong Kong. I have seen other shrimps on american forums, but I would advice checking out if they are endangered, more often than not, it is.

    Do they look like the green shrimp in the pic posted? Or do they look semi-transparent?
