Shrimp Nation Sept/Oct/Nov Updates! (And new stuff!)

Hello TASA!

So COVID-19 has been interesting to say the least. It dealt a very heavy blow to a lot of small business in South Africa, and with that I would like to say thank you to everyone on TASA that has supported ShrimpNation during lockdown! It really helped.

So here is an update thread for all the good stuff that is happening or coming in Sept/Oct/Nov!

GlassGarten:
This shipment has caused a lot of stress. But its finally here.
All GlassGarten and Salty Shrimp products back in stock!

For the first time we also brought in Sulawesi Minerals for those that want to try a new shrimp.
Mineral Junkie and Shrimp dinner has new formulas and the improvements are really great!


Botanicals:
Or first shipment of botanicals are finally on its way! The order was originally placed on 16 of Febuary this year but due to whats going on in the world it was only confirmed on a container and on its way to South Africa last month.

The shipment will container some cool leaves for shrimp keepers and fish keepers wishing to setup some cool tanks.

• Banana Leaves
• Jackfruit Leaves
• Mangrove Leaves
• Gauva Leaves
• Mulberry Leaves
• Catappa Leaves (Malaysian Indian Almond)

Plants!
There has been lots of requests for plants and mosses, and we are currently in discussion to have some plants back in stock soon! Covid-19 messed with Airfreight and as such the plant imports.
Hoping to provide a full list of plants soon, with a couple of new additions to our list.

Shrimp!
We won't be ShrimpNation without shrimp.
Lockdown has given us the opportunity to sort out our breeding tanks and get everything ready for summer breeding. Website has been updated with stock and below are some of the new shrimp that will be available very soon!

• Racoon Tigers
• Tangerine Tigers
• Black Pintos
• Cardinal Sulawesi Shrimp

Lastly we are continuously trying to improve our self and would love suggestions and feedback! Now that lock down has lifted we are trying to get some new products in. So if there is something out there that you would like to see, give us a shout.
