I was there today (long hair, long coat, hard to miss). I was sorely tempted to get that one, as it was VERY lovely.

I'm going to wait a little longer, add a little more sand (I had about 1/4"...

Oh, I know there's more than one kind. It's terribly hard to find listings of mature sizes (or has been for me, anyway). Or, to find sites/stores that list more than "Snapping shrimp, various spp." ...

That's why I'm looking for a small one to begin with. If it seems like it might outgrow this setup I'll bump to a larger tank, or go for something else entirely.

I know quite a few people keep...

I sent an inquiry to Aquariums, and I'll see if I can check out the Wet Pets and Crystal Clear this weekend.

Thanks a bunch! If anyone has one they're looking to get rid of feel free to let me...

Where to find pistol shrimp?

Does anyone know of a (Metro-area) LFS which regularly has in -small- pistol shrimp (either has hitch-hikers, or stock)?
Also, if anyone here has one they'd like to get rid of I'll happily take it...

I'm moving down there just after the newyear, so I imagine I'll be hitting up the stores somethin' fierce.

That could work!
Due to the shape of the tank (it will be a flatback hex) there'd be a little overlap in the front corners.

I will keep it in mind, though.

It's at the corner of Lockheed Drive and SE 15th in Midwest City.
Plugging "Pet-Vet Supply Inc" into mapquest will get you a convenient map right to it.

The only Azoo lights I could locate were 13w (Galaxy and Galaxy 2) or 7w (Palm Light). I guess I just don't have enough information on which light happysak is referring to.

If you could point out a brand, size, wattage... etc. That'd be helpful. Links are also esepcially good. :)

There's a retailer who sells live, young, shrimp. I believe he goes by "Noni". He usually sells them for seahorses (and for eating, as they are edible shrimp), so they come in a wide range of sizes....

A heat gun from the local Harbor Freight would also bend without burning.
They also don't get -quite- hot enough to do major dammage.

I managed to get some really interesting peices by pressing dead rock peices into the sand, and carefully filling in the hole. We'll see how things work out in a few weeks.

Now, that looks like a miriacle in a bottle for seahorses. I'm assuming the micron size is entirely too large for dwarf horses, unfortunately.

$22 for the larger bottle would be more than worth...
