Is anyone having trouble getting live food in the UK?

I went to one LFS and they said that they couldn't get it because the supplyer they got it from kept it for 3 days before passing it on and another said that they were unable to get it due to some new EU law or something

No problems here, even though my LFS has no ceiling, it's still selling "Happy Meals " of brine shrimp and bloodworms

I think they're "home bred" though, might make a difference

I like to think that whoever designed marine life was thinking of it as basically an entertainment medium. That would explain some of the things down there, some of the unearthly biological contraptions

Mine gets shipments of live Daphnia and live Bloodworm every Wednesday. Brine Shrimp by special order. If I ask him nicely, he might even get me some Gammarus or some Crangonyx pseudogracilis amphipods for me to culture, who knows?

Hmmm, maybe my LFS are just a bit useless then. Is there anywhere where i can order them off the internet?
