does anyone know whats going on with Aquarian Bottom Feeder Shrimp Pellets...cant seem to find any anywhere...everyone is out of stock.

I hear Kleinz has taken a liking to them. Likes to nibble on them as snacks so he bought them all up. When you go over to his house all you hear is *crunch* *crunch* *crunch*.

 

Have you checked with Seaview? I recall seeing them in last time I was there (although that was a couple weeks ago).

[Bermont]

i used to get them from city farmers, usually they have them

[Kleinz]

I was told by a sponsor that the Aquarian range has been withdrawn, so what's on shelves will be the last of it.

 

If that is so, then it's a shame as my geo's love those shrimp pellets more than Jesus.

 

If you find some, PM me with loc, cos I want some as well

Unfortunately they have been discontinued, sad because it's such a good product -jase-

[BristledOne]

discontinued? Nooo, at only 33% protein + 6.7% fat they make a great treat for pretty much anything! Most others seem to have 38%+ and are more likely to cause bloat in my Bristlenose.



-edit-

Calling some stores to hunt for some as I'm nearly out of both these and my algae wafers.

First Call:: City Farmers Midland
City Farmers and its distributors are apparently out of stock WA wide (friendly staff on the phone btw she is apparently trying to locate this product for a few of her customers)

Second Call:: Better Pets and gardens Midland
out of stock, recommended I call Caversham as they have larger shelves and storage and they are both out of stock (Midland's staff was noteworthy, very friendly and helpful)

 

Third Call:: Caversham Better Pets and gardens, no stock.

Forth call:: Pet City Morley

The Midland Better Pets and gardens has recommended me to try PetCity as she believed that's where they typically source Aquarian products from.
They have no stock, end of the phone trail.




Midland's staff member said she can try to locate and order some if needed, but I doubt she'd be able to locate any.


-update-
received a callback from Pet City Cannington, they've recommended I call Cockburn, but thats a bit far for me

I have new info! :

 

Cory at Pet Magic Bibra tells me Aquarian have stopped/withdrawn temporarily, but will be making a return soon; just repackaged. No need to panic after all

 

They are the same guys who make the API range of water conditioners etc, and incidentally, their main line, which is Mars bars.

 

 

Also, why are you calling all those crappy non sponsor chain stores?

Because the only sponsor store within range is CityBarn and I know their shelves well
