About COSS

The Chicago Ornamental Shrimp Society was created to connect shrimp and invert keepers in the Greater Chicago metropolitan area. This includes all of Chicago and its surrounding suburbs, southern Wisconsin to include Milwaukee and the NW parts of Indiana.

Our primary focus is educating aquarium hobbyists about keeping dwarf shrimp and other inverts.
