Well, they’ve finally done it. Now they are coloring amano shrimp in Taiwan! When will this practice stop? Here’s what was on the availability list this week:

A 25-30G mini-pond isn’t very much for outdoor use. The water will be subject to drastic temperature swings that a larger volume would be better able to handle.
