| Sorry for your losses chaps... I'm considering buying 2 or 3 cleaner shrimps. Will try to learn from your experience ...!
Nonetheless, good luck... |

You are talking about the yellow /red, white skunk cleaner right and not the blood shrimp or Crimson shrimp ? Man I'd love to have the shrimp concession in Pa LOL.. _________ Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enough to know they were impossible (Doug Larson) | |

BTW, the nemo is doing great. By the secound day, he/she was already sharing the LTA. As for the Harlyquin shrimps, they already started the attack on the C.C. star and my two sand shifting stars too. They are truely beautiful. | |

Shrimp and all inverts are very sensitive to changes. Acclimation is very important as your tank parameters verses the LFS will be very different. I don't think any LFS would take back an invert with out first knowing the exact conditions of the water and acclimation
Sorry for your loss.
