    HI all,
    I went over to the LFS in Clement 328 area. However, they do not seems to be carrying bumble bee shrimps anymore. Was there a few times but was told "no bumble bee, only tiger"

    On the contrary, i saw some bumble bee shrimps look alike in those crystal red shrimps tanks...selling at 2.80 each piece...has bumble bee attain a new status?

    thank you

    yours sincerely,
    Storm

    Are you sure those are bumble bee shrimps? Could be diamond shrimps though.

    Hi...
    I believe that there are many people in this forum who are quite experience in shrimps. Can you tell us the difference?

    Appreciate it

    Thanks

    Hi...
    I was over at nature Aqua last week and the uncle say that those that are selling in packs are just nicer bumblee bee...hahaha... from an amatuer point of view, those selling from the clementi per piece looks really similar to the normal bumblee bee which we are used to buiying...hahaha

    thanks

    hi cherries lover,

    thanks for your advice. Maybe we should revert to keeping crystal red shrimps instead...hahaha...bumblee shrimps should not be worth that much.but somehow or another, i think that bee shirmps will be fetching a very high price in the very near future...very near future...

    hahaha
