Hi all, I've been going a little stir crazy with this awful weather lately, and now that it's warming up I'm itching to ship some fish out of here! All fish are healthy, active, and eating like pigs.

I ship within the contiguous US only. I use Priority or Express mail (your choice) and guarantee live arrival for a 3 day ship. Priority mail is 2 days to most locations. I pack all boxes with a styrofoam liner and 72 hour heat pack. PM me with your zip code and a list of what you are interested in and I will gladly calculate shipping cost. I ship by weight because it is most often cheaper (if flat rate is cheaper, I choose that instead). In the highly unlikely event of DOA, I will need a clear photo of the fish in unopened bag within 2 hours of first delivery attempt. Guarantee applies to cost of animals only. Paypal only, please.

If you want to see a photo of something, just ask. Thanks for looking!

Crystal Red Shrimp .5” $3.50
Blue Pearl Shrimp .5” $2.50- one bag of 8 available.
Red Cherry Shrimp .5” $1.00
Shrimp are bred here in our fishroom. All shrimp will include either a bit of java moss or Myriophyllum mattogrossense in the bag.

Cardinal Tetra 1.25” $4.00
Von Rio Tetra 1” + $3.00
Orange Von Rio Tetra .75” $3.00
Purple Passion Danio 1.5” + $3.00
Giant Danio 2” $2.50
Lemon Tetra 1.25” $2.00
Dwarf Emerald Rasbora- Great nano fish! .5” $3.50

Albino Bristlenose pleco 1", bred here in our fishroom $4

Sparkling Gourami 1” + $4.00

I would like to see some pics of the tetras and rasboras please. 😊

severum mama · 02-02-2014, 05:25 PM

The "rasboras" are actually Danio erythromicron in case anyone was wondering. They max out around an inch. Sorry for the photo quality, I had to use my phone. The photos look blue because I have a 10k and actinic in that light fixture.

S? S+? They are nice, healthy shrimp and very prolific. Here's a pic.

Shipping to you would be $7.50 Priority, estimated 2 day, includes styro liner and heat pack.

NeMox69x · 02-02-2014, 07:12 PM

Shipping quote?

severum mama · 02-02-2014, 07:15 PM

Sorry, I edited the post to include shipping cost. $7.50 Priority, estimated 2 day, includes styro liner and heat pack. Thanks for looking.

Honestly you have the most fair prices I've seen for red crystal, not a specific grade but I don't care. No problem I'm going to think about it it's still kind of cold out but il let you know

Fishdude3233 · 02-02-2014, 07:17 PM

Hi!

I'm loving your crystal reds, I may convince myself to buy some. Do they breed as well as RCS?

No problem, I'm pretty fearless about shipping with heat packs within a certain range of temps. Just let me know whenever you decide.

They do here. They are VERY prolific. They just need quality foods and clean water. Since you are fairly local, it's usually a one day ship from here. I'm sending out approx. half inch juvies so please be aware that they will need time to grow to sexual maturity before they will begin to breed.

Fishdude3233 · 02-02-2014, 07:29 PM

Great! What do you feed them if you don't mind me asking? Also about how long until they reach maturity?

Well, they need time to settle in and grow out some, so probably 3-4 months for them to mature and start breeding.

They eat everything from NLS crustacean formula to fresh zucchini to brine shrimp sticks, algae wafers, etc. They eat whatever we throw in there. Just feed high quality foods and give them some variation in their diet.

Fishdude3233 · 02-02-2014, 07:46 PM

Ok I will most likely get 6-7. They won't cross breed with RCS right?

severum mama · 02-02-2014, 07:52 PM

No, they will not.

Crystal red shrimp can be kept with Neocaridina (like the RCS and the blue pearls that I have listed here).

Scarab · 02-02-2014, 10:48 PM

Would you mind posting a few pics of the blue shrimps you have for sale (if you have any left)? Do you also sell your java moss? Also about what size are they? (Edit: Read 0.5 inches.) Thank you!

severum mama · 02-03-2014, 12:17 PM

I still have a bag of 8 left. I do not have enough java moss to spare more than a little in the shipping bag at this time.

KeeshyRee · 02-03-2014, 03:04 PM

Hi I'd like a price quote to 62859 for 4 blue shrimp and 6 red cherry shrimp

If these are for the same tank, please be aware that it is generally not a good idea to keep rcs and blue pearls together, as they will interbreed. I will pm you with shipping cost when I get home.
