    Default Local Store that carries adult live brine?

    I know there's a store in Boerne that carries adult live brine but that's so far for me.
    Does anybody know of a local store that gets adult live brine?

    There's one in Boerne? We recently bought it from Austin Aquadome when we were trying to get Mike's long nosed hawk to eat. I haven't found anyone who sells it here in town.... wish they would though.

    You not finding one that's bad news because I know you probably inquired everywhere. :(
    Yeah too bad none of the SA stores gets them.

    Was hoping maybe one of the freshwater places might carry it (since I've never seen it at a saltwater place)

    There used to be a coop in Austin that sold to the lfs there. May want to check the Aquadome next time you're heading north.

    Oh no I didn't inquire everywhere, just a few. I had noticed previously that the Dome generally carries it and already had to be in Austin for work that week so it was a good excuse to stop by the Dome.

    Seems like you are just destined to go to Austin and check out the Aquadome one of these days. Let me know and we'll make a road trip!

    Being that I work at Red Crest in Boerne and live in SA I could easily bring some to town for you if you wanted some Karin. Just let me know how many you want. We sell it for $1.99 per teaspoon. (we net them drain the water and give you a full teaspoon full of shirmp in a bag of fresh salt water) if you set up your own tank with an air stone you can usually keep the shrimp alive for over a week.

    I know folks in Utah who would collect a culture of them from the Great SL and have food for the year. It requires proper feeding and cleaning, which is way more work than I would want to do, but they were breeding and repopulating.
