shrimps

I'm going to be looking for one myself. I bought 5 Ghost Shrimp last week and need to get something with iodine. I'm considering this for the shrimp. I've used Kent products in the past and they seem to work well. And according to this site, small concentrations of iodine are usually beneficial as well. So pretty much just don't over use the stuff (;like anything else you add to an aquarium) and nothing bad will happen.

The Kents Super Iodine is the same thing they recommend at www.azgardens.com only they sell theirs for $7.99. They say they use 1/2 teaspoon per 25 gallon once a month in their nursery. I've just got to decide if I want to try ordering shrimp online or not.

You could probably find it even cheaper than that if you looked around hard enough. I haven't looked too closely myself. I think my LFS has it for $5 but I'll have to go and see.
