RCS - Going rate in shops?

[LancsRick]

I fancy giving some shrimp a go, and dropped into my LFS today but they only had glass and fire red (£6!), so I was wondering what I should expect to pay for RCS in a shop?

I'd buy off the forum but if I miss the delivery I wouldn't forgive myself for causing animals suffering (yes, even shrimp).

P.S. Is it just me or do glass shrimp look plain weird?!

Anything from £2.50 - £5 each going by my lfs

£4.50 in my Maidenhead Aquatics Post where you are from you might find a member just down the road with spares to sell.

About 2.99 around me. Hoping my latest colony stay strong so I can offer to local members. Don't fancy posting though.

£4.99 last time i saw around me, total rip off. you can get fire reds for 75p.

and yes, glass shrimp are weird.

Sorry to go off topic slightly any chance you can give us the place where you can get fire-reds for that price please?

Shrimp grading is very subjective......and in my experience lfs tend to be on the generous side with their grading. True Fire Reds are stunning shrimp, but i've seen Fire Reds in LFS that are no better than my own normal cherries.

Certainly never seen Fire Reds for £0.75 each.......but I'd like some please!!!! Where are they at?
