New Book

Post by beckypyyeung »

Hi Shrimp Friends,

For your information, I saw two new books on freshwater shrimps in the fish street in Hong Kong. The books are in Chinese. They're sealed and I didn't buy. I guess they're from Taiwan.

Thanks for the information, are you able to read the cover to find out the contents of the books? I am currious what they contain (general care information/photos/ancient secretes :-D ). If you could please let us know, thanks :)

I visited the fish street yesterday but unfortunately I couldn't find anything more about the book. The cover only reads CRS and some other freshwater shrimps, and the book is sealed.

That is one of the ways they can market books, buy it or you never know what is inside. Unless someone you know bought it and lets you read/see all the secretes :wink: This fish street sounds like it has new surprises for shrimp whenever you go :o Thanks for sharing with us :D

Yes, it has new surprises whenever I go there. I bought a pregnant cherry yesterday. I hope I can get some babies. You know, months ago I still had a pair of CRS and six Crystal Black (some people think they are in fact bee shrimps). However, recently they quietly disappeared. Now I only have one CRS and two Crystal Black :cry:
