I don't think I'll be going back there anyway. I've just got to wait for my small local fish shop to get some more shrimp in stock Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I don't think I can trust them with anything, I only went there as last resort. I'm happy with my local fish shop but I just have to be a bit more patient and maybe pre order in future as he doesn't have lots of stock Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

That's exactly what I thought. It was a large chain pet store that told me that. I'm going to go to the small tropical fish shop where I bought my neon tetras. He didn't have any shrimp in stock at the weekend but he said he'll have some in 2 weeks so I'll just wait Sent from my iPhone using...

I don't think I did anything wrong. To be honest i never even seen him out if his shell when he was put in the bag at the pet shop. Is it likely that he was dead when I got him? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Oh right, it's nice to have a name for them.I just want them gone. I can only see about 5 or 6 but I was told that if there are a few visible then there are probably a lot more hiding in the substrate. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I don't know what snails they are. They are pink with white/clear shells Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I really hope so, I'm look forward to watching him assassinate the pest hahaha:) Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

They didn't give a reason. I thought this was very strange too. I think I will just buy them from somewhere else! :) Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Hi, I have a 100ltr planted tank. Yesturday I was told by my local fish shop that they could not let me buy any Amano shrimp as they will die in a planted tank. She said that this was only realised recently. I find this very strange as I thought they would thrive in a planted tank. Can anyone...

Ok thanks, that's a relief Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Hi, I'm new to fish keeping. I purchased a 100 ltr tank 8 weeks ago and planted it up. Yesturday I tested my water and all was fine to go ahead and start adding fish. I was told that it is best to take it slowly adding fish so I bought 5 neon tetras and 1 assassin snail to help control the pest...
