Hi!

My name is Paul and I have been raising Freshwater Dwarf Shrimps for many years now as my pets.  I have created this site in the hopes of sharing my shrimp keeping passion with the world and hopefully providing homes for some of the offspring that my aquariums provide.  I strive to improve the quality of my shrimps habitats and selectively breed for outstanding quality and characteristics in my shrimps.  All the pictures you see on this site are taken by me of my shrimps.  I struggle with the photography aspect of the hobby but have got a few decent pics out of the hundreds taken so far.  Please don't judge to harsh.  I do not have the best equipment.  I post the best pics I have at the time.  I hope eventually to improve the quality of my pics as well and will upgrade them when available.  If you would like to use any of my pics please contact me for permission.

My main point to make is that I am hobbyist and I'm not selling my shrimp for profit but it is a passion of mine and if I can find good homes for my extra shrimps all the better.  Overpopulation is an issue I hope to keep in check with this website. I do however keep expanding my stock list and upgrade my equipment etc., with every sale.  I am not doing large purchases and reselling shrimp like a retailer.  I do have a day job.  :)

I raise the shrimp I sell from babies and that means I will only have a species available for sale when nature provides.

If you purchase my shrimps they are selected by me for high quality.  I take great care in shipping and handling.  It has taken me a tremendous amount of effort and expense to locate and obtain some of these species, get them into the country, raise them, and ship them, so others can adopt them as thier own. 

I am developing articles and will share my knowledge of keeping each species on their specific web pages within this site.  I by no means claim to be the "Temple of all wisdom" of shrimp keeping but I have some success and I will continue to learn and share my experience with other Dwarf Shrimp fans.

 

Thanks again for viewing the pages on my site and feel free to send a comment, ask a question, and have a look at the store page. 

Be careful you don't get bitten by the shrimp bug!!!

Have a great day!!!

Paul.
