They do sell via Internet; I bought a case and was very happy with the shipping and product.

I picked up a bag from these guys for my refugium, and now they're breeding in my overflows, rockwork and sump. Free shipping too!

So did they all arrive alive from Florida to California? How was the packing? And which ones did you get? Thanks!

ReefGeekster, I did the same and reported at least 95% survival rate, but could of been 98%. Not bad at all.

I got the mysid opossum, 100 count I think. They arrived the second day and like JoeMack said, 97 or 98% survived. Of course, 2 or 3 will give you thousands of offspring in a very short period of time. I'm not sure what they're feeding on inside my tank and 'fuge, but they seem to be thriving, and the fish love the available live prey.:D

are they saltwater shrimp??

But of course.
