Yup, she came from you at the Lansing swap, and has settled in nicely.

Wow, and I thought I had a small pico with 2 gallons. Looks great, I've been trying to get my hands on a Bumble bee shrimp myself.

Thanks! I would have preferred to go with a larger pico but this is what I had on hand.

The shrimp is cool but it has not come out from under the arch since I added it. I believe they prefer to be in groups... so I think I'll add another to see if that helps with the reclusiveness. Unfortunately, it was the last bumble bee shrimp at Preuss. However, they thought they may be getting more soon. I'll let you know when they do.

Cool Thanks!

Have you fed him yet? I know they eat echinoderm feet like Harlequin shrimp but they don't depend on them to survive like the Harles do, so do you have to train them to eat frozen food like a mandarin or will they take whatever you feed them?
