Shrimp Prices

[ian]

Have been admiring CRS's for while and I have been out of town today, I came across a MA in a garden center near Brigg and they had some in, I ended up buying some. They were 3 for £20! I did do a bit of bartaring like everyone should in MA, and got 4 for £20. I know the are graded, these appear to be an "A" grade. I also saw some cherries in there for £3 each! Also some ninjas @ £10 each. I have some ninjas in my small tank, they weren't this expensive though. Is it me or have shrimp prices gone through the roof?

What prices do you see shrimp at and what part of the country?

The only LFS that carries red cherry shrimp near me sells them for about 6 or 7$

CRS are usually £14 for 3, RCS are £11 for 3...none of them cheap really for what they are.

I`m not majorly bothered about them being perfect or specifically graded to be honest even though I think mine are Grade A and B
I just like the look of them

I had a bamboo shrimp called bubba lol, just disapeared one day, never even found his corpse . Also best shrimp I ever had were African Armoured/Boxing Shrimp, bit like bamboo's but the size of small crayfish with out the claws and bluey colour. Really awesome watching their little mittons sifting through the water bit like bamboo's do but they dont keep them still. They were £15 each at MA.

My LFS sells CRS (grade A) 5 for £23 I think. I was sooo tempted but I don’t have a spare plug for a heater; only a filter .
