Jon Ive got a 5 gallon and 20 fit fine. a group of 20 would be fine for your 10

+1. I've got a 6gl and 20 were no problem. Heck, if I had a 10gl I'd put 40 in it. RCS are pretty tiny little guys.

I expected to rush back here and post again (I wasn't at home when I made my last post) but everyone already said what I was gonna say.

I guess thats how it goes when you do good business. :)

xrayjeeper83

yes you do very very good business, I will be gettign with you when I get my 55 up and running

Aqua Jon

Wow, you all do some great PR for redcigh! haha I'm pretty much sold on the idea, minus the fact that my tank is still cycling. I read up on shrimp in the forum for them. So I will have to get them from you since you are exceptionally recommended.

redchigh

Great.

I tried on a whim to put some in a bowl (like a Goldfish bowl).

Needless to say, I wouldn't reccomend it. I think they probably like more than 1G of space.

I added some to my 5G planted (no filter on that one. No light either for that matter, its just heavily planted and in a sunny window. It's also pretty close to a lamp that i keep on pretty often.) and they're doing well with my ghost shrimp.

Will have pics in a week or two. :)
Probably ONLY gonna put 20 in it, cause I gotta get some Amanos and maybe bumblebees for it.
(wanna make it an invert tank.)

I am also interested in buying shrimp but I am living in Kuwait and I need 10- 15 cherry shrimp. is possible ??

redchigh

Hmm. Possible? yes.

Worth the insane shipping costs and waiving the DOA? probably not.
My estimate would be that it would cost about $60-$70 to buy and send 20, and have it get there within the week.

milindsaraswala

I think it is too much..... there no other way

redchigh

Well, Priority mail can be sent internationally..

but I have no idea how long it would take, and it would definately waive the DOA.
Would probably take about 2 weeks to get there.

I don't feel confident they'd arrive alive. I'm sorry.
I wish there was a cheaper way to ship internationally... I've been trying to find some Thai Micro Crabs for a year.

They're popular (and relatively cheap) in europe and asia, but well over $10 a piece here.
