There's an auction selling adult red cherry shrimp. I've read that they don't ship as well but wanted to know if anyone had any experience with it. Here's the auction:

If you have done it before did you have success? Did you get them okay and did they survive? Thanks.

I would buy them from here on the forum. They are cheaper and shipping won't be $12

I have bought adult RCS online before and had good success.. but I have never bought them on ebay

it will all depend on the seller I guess... but I know you can get a better deal on here

My first two batches came from eBay, they were fine and bred like crazy for me. They were a nice coloration, a good price, fair shipping... if you look around a lot you'll find good deals on eBay, Aquabid, MFK or here.

I'd search around for a better auction that that one though, a bit pricey. But there's definitely good stuff on eBay a lot of times. ^_^

Ok, well it's good to hear that adults seem to ship fine. I just had read that sometimes they don't but wanted some first-hand experiences. You're right about finding good deals here too. That classified section is awesome.
