Hi June, I forgot to mention in my earlier email... We already have enough interest in the Kikari blood worms (16 oz. flat pack) to get the discount, so if you're "comparison shopping", I can already tell you the price on that one - $7.79 each.

My experience has always been good with their brine shrimp; I've never used their blood worms before. We were wondering the same thing about the mosquito rojo larva. We thought that blood worms were fly larva. Steev?, anybody?, we need some help on this one :) I asked Sandy Gibson her opinion on the phone. She said it's all good, but especially for blood worms, she thinks the Hikari brand is best - specifically, the cleanest. There's been a good amount of interest, so far, so the shipping cost should be quite low. The fixed shipping amount is $19.99 no matter how much we order. I can't guarantee an exact amount though, since your share of the $19.00 will be pro-rated based on the $value of what you buy. In other words, if you buy a lot more (and expensive) items than anybody else, then you'll pay more shipping than anybody else. Conversely, if your order is smaller than most others, then you'll pay less shipping. I hope this helps, Rick -----Original Message----- From: owner-gsas-member@thekrib.com [mailto:owner-gsas-member@thekrib.com] On Behalf Of June Olberding Sent: Friday, June 06, 2003 2:05 PM To: gsas-member@thekrib.com Subject: Re: Frozen Fish-Food Coop-Order Rick, I am in if we get enough that shipping is < $5/ person.
