thats a bummer jinks. I will PM you with a shrimp purchase to help you out. and the dakotagirl offspring doesnt sound bad? she had a great collection of snails. Ditto mphunk.
I have 31 of the little buggers that hatched from one of DGs snails, So far they are not very big, and don't have any color to them at all. Some stripes are starting to show.
