Nice shrimp Mike!

I'm looking at setting up a nano tank as i've never attempted it before, and was just curious where to locate shrimp species? their difficult to find in any LFS, but was just curious whether there would be a local supplier or such?

Hi guys
Yep...thats the little tank I took with me.
Theres a few people in Perth with Cherry and CRS now...so they should be available. The Cherries are easy to breed.
The natives are available from Aquagreen in Darwin, he does ship interstate. He has a great selection of native fish too. Unfortunatley you will just have to drool over his plants as he wont send them to WA.
I think that you can legally import shrimp now. Both those species are commonly available over east. The Cherry Shrimp in my picture I picked up for only $4 each (but I did have to buy a few of them). All of the smaller ones are babies.

Mike when you say you think can be legally imported, is this the common CRS and Cherry? or are the blue and yellow species of shrimp also available for import?

It depends...the Cherries and CRS have been smuggled into Australia originally...most are now bred here...I think its ok to import into WA from other states...just no plants or snails...
