    they dance regardless, we have one, and we were advised to keep odd numbers because they will move as a "pack" in odd numbers. they scatter if in even numbers. :)


    the sexy dance is HILARIOUS

    Trust me, a lot of joy can be had from calling up all the LFS's and asking if they have 'sexy shrimp'. ;)

    Nowhere that I see as good enough in the local area has any at the moment, so I'm going to wait. Well.. one shop does.. but all the tanks look a little worse for wear and I wouldn't dare let something from there touch my tank!
