She misquoted me just a tad, but not a big deal -- and the Bumble Bees are not the same as Bee Shrimp, but that's ok, she didn't know.

Very cool! I know exactly what you mean when you said: Quote: | "Once you get them, you get really fascinated, because they're such hard-working little creatures," she says. "They're constantly looking for food and picking at stuff. They're so industrious, it's almost like watching an ant farm." |
I'm watching mine right now....they flock to the front of the tank during feeding time LOL
PS: If I send you a shrimp with pre-paid return mailing, could you sign him for me?  | |

Thanks Amber -- I think as a hobby (planted tanks, fish, inverts, etc.) we really need to get in the 'normal' press more often. I jumped at the opportunity to do this, I hope that there are more opportunities that come up for more of us to 'market' the hobby! | |
