Have you tried contacting the pet stores if you can sell to them for store credit or for profit?
If you were able to gain store credit, then you can buy supplies for even more shrimps there! |

If the IRS ever catches wind of your profits from it you might be in doodoo. Your operation is larger than a simple hobbiest

If you don't like online or pick up then meet the person in some public parking lot.
I'd definitely be interested in what you would sell for 3 for $1 credit. I would avoid soliciting on private property unless you meeting up with someone and doing a quick transaction otherwise hanging out and if the property owners complain to the police could net you a fine if you are caught repeatedly. |

You would make a killing on this forum if you were willing to ship.
What are those green shrimp you have with the cherries? |

shipping shrimps aint too bad, use a kordon breather bag, shredded paper and a small flat rate box. Shippings about 10 bucks but thats on the buyer. 3 shrimps for 1 dollar to the LFS?!?!?!?! thats a rip off! They are gonna charge customers 3 or 4 dollars per shrimp.

try looking for a local club, aquabid works as well, also craigslist works. i don't get why the fishstores wont buy from you. it makes no sense. but anyways, i was wondering how exactly you filtered all these tanks. is there a giant wet dry filter somewhere. or like a huge giant canister filter. i see one canister in a pic. but that can't be it.
