    Where is the best shop to find inverts near to river valley road, alexandra road or orchard road as these are the roads I often travel to also any other shop within 5min walk of any MRT stations connecting to the North south line. I have looked through the shop list but it doesn't give ratings for variety and such. I don't want to buy just look at the difference in stocking between a UK LFS really.

    Re: Best invert store?

    For widest variety of shrimps, i would say shrimp haven at tampines. For widest variety of crayfish/crabs, i would say c328.

    Colourful aquarium located at Thomson road, near to Novena. This store has a few crowded tanks with nice CRS. They have a mixture of grade A to SSS. Besides inverts, the moss and aquatic plants setup are superb.

    Just some tips.
    a) Check price before buying the shrimps.
    b) Basic setup for shrimps :- Good Gravel/Filter/Ketapang Leaves or old sea mud rock
    c) Temperature and other water condition monitoring.
    d) Lastly is water change method and amount each time.

    Actually if you really want the really oddball, you should try tropical fish aquarium at Pasir Ris farmway, its a pity they are located so far away from everywhere, they have the potential of bringing alot of rare fish and shrimps given their network, but sales there have always been slow. I think if people wanted to get really weird or rare fauna at reasonable prices, they are the place to go. I have bought 4 different shrimps that to these day I have never seen on the market anywhere else.
