I have loads of cold water ones in my pond as I discovered the other night when I went out there with the torch.
Now wonder my fish didn't take the food I put in for them.

That was before the *ucking heron helped it's self.

Mine you the frogspawn will last longer this year.
Not seen a baby frog in my pond..............ever.

I can order shrimps at any time from my wholesale supplier. They were on his stock list last week and have been there almost continuosly

I have not noticed a shortage of shrimps, but the size they sell seems to have decreased. They used to be about an inch long now all I seem to be able to get are small ones.

My Cichlids are none to pleased by this turn of events.

Try this, there mail order fish company based in the south west, hered they are very good.
Let us know if you buy any how you get on because ill be making a purchase in the futre.

Go to the tropical fish stock list, and look for the shrimps.

the postage is £10 and the shrimps are
SHRIMPS - CARADINIA ( AMANO) 1.85 4 for 7.00 so not good value for money as the total order would come to £17 for 4 shrimps

depends on how bad you want them!
