Title: Christmas gift arriving today hopefully!
Post by: bettabreeder on December 17, 2013, 08:50:27 AM
I'm hoping that my Christmas gift shows up today! The girlfriend ended up going on a shopping spree at shrimpfever so I'm excitedly waiting for the surprise to get here today!

Very much so. And they'll have to wait until both my exams are done tomorrow. I dunno how I'm going to focus knowing they're at home :P

So after a tremendously terrifying text message from my brother saying "they are here but it's in a canada post apology bag and the box is soaked" I managed to get him to unbox them for me and check the status of the critters. Thankfully it was just the box was wet and everything inside was still intact.

Hey Brendan, you must have had a big exhale after opening the box  :)
Now get those critters breeding so I can be a godfather to the off springs  ;D

Oh you bet I had a minute long sigh of relief. And that's the plan. The cbs and bkk are juvies but the blue bolts are definitely are at breeding age so I'll get to it

I gotta say. I thought that some of the crystal black shrimp I have had "black" shells. Absolutely pale in comparison to the black of the bkk (https://www.ovas.ca/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.tapatalk.com%2Fd%2F13%2F12%2F20%2Fanurepu9.jpg&hash=cd0dbce3f0ef62b4dc9c2b9944df1d03d06b7d9f)

 :) Very nice !!
I'm looking at this on Christmas Eve and I am very happy for you. You were definitely on the "Nice" list this year.

P.S. Gotta luv Shrimp Fever.com (Note: I believe Jason @ Critter Jungle orders from them as well so you make want to wander down there from time-to-time to check out what they have. It would save all the anxiety in shipping. No I do not work for them. Ha!)
