hey spizz look at this. ima do what this guys doing.

Thats what I am doing now, my C grade shrimp just gave birth last week and from what I read in this awesome site there will be roughly 20% C, 60% B 20 % A grade shrimp and you can select the A grade shrimps to breed and get more A grade shrimps.... The only other thing is S grade shrimps may have newbee/bumblebee genes in them and that means you may not be able to acheive S grade or above shrimps with this method. But I do like the "candy" look of A grade shrimps and I think the fun part of rearing shrimps is actually the journey itself of constantly trying to improve the colours and patterns of the shrimp and not solely of the "end product" itself.

No, I live in Washington, I just pay attention to things going on all over. I think 2-15 per shrimp should not shock you. Put them on hold, take pics and post them if you do not feel comfortable.
