Thought I'd check with everyone first. I'm going to be ordering some Golden Pearls from http://www.brineshrimpdirect.com/golden-pearls.html . Anybody want some as well? The more we order the more we save on shipping.

I'm thinking of putting the order in sometime next week if anybody else wants in or later this week if I'm on my own.

Cheers :smile:

What are the applications for this? I see lots of different particle sizes. Is it for SPS? I couldn't find much info from the website. Maybe I didn't look in the right places but I looked at the Product link and the FAQ.

Looks like people are having good results using the smaller sizes to feed sps directly. I don't really feed my sps anything right now so I'm gonna give it a shot.

I use the 2 smallest sizes of GP. I feed at 1:00am, so I'm not sure who is eating it. I also feed baby brine shrimp;if I were an acro, I'm sure I'd like that!! :-)

Hi Mason,

If you place an order I would take one of each of the following two products:

1-3.5 ounce "active spheres" 5-50 microns $6.95

1-5.50 ounce "juvenile diet" 800-1000 microns $7.95

Send me a PM if you need payment before you order, or to fill me in on the details.

Thanks a bunch! :mrgreen:
cheers, Rich

Sure Rich. There won't be much to it I guess. We could just split the shipping amongst everyone who wants to order. I'll put it on my CC and somewhere along the line you guys can just pay me back.

Let's wait around until mid-next week or so and see if anyone else wants to tag along :smile:

Could you place the following order for me:

1 - 6.0 oz Rotifier Size I 50-100 microns $8.95

Ok so far we have the following:

Rich (Sumpfinfishe)

1-3.5 ounce "active spheres" 5-50 microns $6.95
1-5.50 ounce "juvenile diet" 800-1000 microns $7.95

Richard (Jedi68)

1 - 3.5 oz Active Spheres 5-50 microns $6.95
1 - 6.0 oz Rotifier Size I 50-100 microns $8.95
1 - 5.5 oz Juveniles Size 800-1000 microns $7.95

Me (Mason)

2 - 3.5 oz Active Spheres 5-50 microns $6.95
1 - 6.0 oz Rotifier Size I 50-100 microns $8.95


I'm going to have them shipped to a friend's house in Bellingham so we'll save on shipping and avoid the dreaded UPS brokerage fee.

Currently the shipping looks like this (US funds) and we'd split it evenly:

UPS Ground: $8.47
UPS 3 Day Select: $11.36
UPS 2nd Day Air: $15.32
UPS Next Day Air: $32.11

It's up to you guys how quick you want it, but let's not go for the next day air please :razz:

Also, if I can avoid it, I'm going to try to get away without paying tax when I cross the border but we'll probably end up having to pay it :mad:

Updates to follow....

Thanks for the tip Wendell.


Yeah I'm thinking good ol' UPS Ground too. Cheapest and I'm not in a huge rush.

I'll PM everyone with their individual grand totals once we confirm the final order.

Cheers...

FYI...I just got an email now saying that UPS has received the shipment. I guess they just shipped it out today. I'm guessing it won't be here until next week or something but I'll keep everyone posted.
