Feeding chickens neocardina shrimp

Those shrimp are expensive!! Make a Craigslist or Reddit post. Every 5 sold should net you a huge bag of soldier fly larvae treats!

Wow...I wish I could sell them here for $5.99 a piece! I even tried to give them to a lady who does aquarium set up and cleaning services - kind of a rent an aquarium set up, but she had no interest.

Yeah, it requires a little bit of work up front, but I have found that since the initial trial and error everything kind of set into place. This is my tank - my husband and I built it. Currently running panda cories, oto cats, siamese algea eaters, amano shrimp, assassin snail, ember tetras and the dreaded neocardinas. hahaha

Nice looking tank!

Problem is we live so far out in the country, that people can't justify the cost for fuel to get here.

Or just use them as better quality treats instead of bfl....

Red cherry shrimp are about the size of a meal worm and sell for $5.00 EACH. It’s one heck of an expensive treat.

They do love them. Had the opportunity at my last filter cleaning to put some out for them.

But not really, because the original five that cost me about $3 each have multiplied prolifically, so they really haven't cost me anything. Producing a profit - which I really don't care to do - is different than expense.

They breed quickly and are cheap to maintain, much cheaper long term than bsl

Probably isn't worth the effort. Takes more than just a box and stamp to ship shrimp
