Minimum Temp for Shrimp?

Post by ToddnBecka »

Regarding shipping, what's the minimum temperature for cherry shrimp tp travel safely without using heatpacks?

Are most/all species of shrimp in the same range, or are some more sensitive to cold than others?

There are verified reports of cherry shrimp living in pools with ice on them. I use a heat pack any time the temps will drop below freezing.
