    I looked into it also. It seems they grow slow and not worth it. If you have a fw tank then you can buy them and keep them around longer. I dont know about disease free, but most shrimps are clean freaks.

    just buy them from ebay and keep them in a tank until feeding time.

    i found one place that would sell them a 100 for $10
