they sell quite a lot of shrimps: yamatos, yellow, green, blue, sakura, cherry, CRS (many grades), long nose shrimp and still got many more.

Regarding their price... $10 for one yellow, $3.50 for one green, and $2 for one sakura. but the quality is quite good.

You could take bus 28, Fifth stop from tampines bus interchange

(First stop at the interchange) Upon alighting walk towards the junction on the left and walk across using the traffic lights. Walk straight and you will see a banner of a MOSURA Shrimp. That's your destination

It Closes on Tuesdays For Maintainence.

**Eightfold** · 27th Dec 2009, 22:15

More than double... But it is safe to say their stock is healthy

Yes its healthy, they are all put out into individual tanks for you to choose from. They are in their own habitat thus, healthy

as they have filter etc, rather than those you see in LFS which is in packets and you wouldn't know how long they have been there. Additionally, the water may be contaminated. At your own risk if you wanna get from those in packets. CRS Haven are all good quality ones. Healthy

**lucasjiang** · 28th Dec 2009, 10:32

you pay for the quality

**boxedfish** · 28th Dec 2009, 10:57

hmmm, funny thing for me is that all my shrimps i bought from there don't last as long as those i bought cheap and in packets in other LFS.

In my observation, LFS sells juveniles. Crs Haven sells mostly matured or close to maturing, thus shorter life span compared to those you bought in LFS.

**boxedfish** · 28th Dec 2009, 11:42

2-4 weeks of being alive is not what i considered shorter lifespan. LFS also do sell with matured pregnant females with a mixed of adults and juveniles.
