Do you have a petco or petsmart near you, both usually carry ghost shrimp :)

Thanks, Yeah, I was calling around all day today looking. Finnaly found one that does have a group, going in to pick it up tommorow. Was wondering if anybody has a more reliable source?

I’ve felt your pain...I went to get some from my petco on their delivery day, the guy told me to come back in 5 hours...I had to work so I went back the next morning...no shrimp...I was beyond ticked...then lost my warty 2 days later... I have gotten them online at saltybottomreefcompany.com they’re 0.20 a piece, cheaper than petco...but the shipping...

There's also this place, but like you said, shipping is a killer. But depending on where you are, they do have good rates for the southeast. Problem is feeding just one predator, many will die before you get a chance to feed them. Freezing the fresh dead is sometimes an option, works for my lions, not so sure about the anglers, again the live to dead transfer a bit more difficult.
