I know AE sell them, however I am looking for some bumble bee shrimp and can't find any at the moment? Had some shrimp off eBay years ago but they were a real mixed bag and I doubt they were what they were sold as.
 
Cheers, that one didn't show up via Google :)
 
Might be worth keeping an eye on rareaquatics. They stock unusual shrimps but don't have bumblebee shrimps at the moment. Might be worth dropping them a line though
 
I will be trying these guys next, I want to get away from Crystals, just lost all of mine last couple of weeks and after two years of trying to breed them I give up to be honest. So I have 3 shrimp tanks at the moment so will try 3 different complete species when I place an order with these guys:

Around 20 quid delivery to the UK!
 
Hi all,

Jo is a well known fish breeder and aquarist, and she won't sell you any shrimps if she isn't happy that they are entirely healthy.
cheers Darrel

Yes same here lol a member from LFKC is buying some and I will see their review about them, I am after 3 or 4 species from that website for my tanks, which I might order next month. :)

May be a good time to start thinking about buying, as the Euro is weakening against the Pound, due to Greece's monetary issues. Something to keep an eye on...
Yeah I started making some calculations of what I could keep and which species I could mix in each tank etc... but the end I was about close to 100 shrimp and 300 euros! lol
 
Can't find anyone selling the bumble bee shrimp, plenty of CRS, but I'll keep looking. Seems I've picked a rare shrimp and I don't fancy paying the large postage costs from the foreign shops at the moment.
 
Shame they all want £15 carriage, next pay day perhaps :)

I can only find foreign suppliers for the bee shrimp, i am interested in some SS 0r SSS grade red bumble bee shrimp, but can't find any in this country.

There are however planty of Bumble bee black and red at my LFS but they are grades A+

Does anyone know where i could get some good grade bee shrimp?
