Buying malayan shrimps in bulk

**eGGS** · 27th Jul 2003, 02:00

Most LFS sells malayan shrimps @ 3 for $1. Planning to get ard 50 for my 3ft and 2ft tank. Does anyone knows where can I buy it in bulk and also, will it be cheaper?

Tks

BTW, is malayan more hardy than yamato?

Many places sell malayan in bulk at rather low prices. Check out Ben @ tiong bahru market, Gans, Ah pek @ lor halus. There should be more.

Check out Gen X at Clementi!

$10 for 100pcs.

What's more delightful was to discover many freshly hatched baby shrimps inside the plastic bag prior to releasing them into my tank. Wah Said!!! Talk about &quot;pick up cow dung&quot; man!

so bros out there who buy shrimps, look out carefully! U may juz find many baby shrimps in there!

Cheers!

gen x is no longer run by thomas, but has been bought over (called green aquarium) I haven't been down there yet cos they were still setting up.

gen x itself moved to marine parade.

you can try the new place to see if you can get malayans. c328 auntie also has it. but you must ask and it comes bagged (so quality/quantity will vary according to supplier's stock).

petmart also have.
