    When I can get them, I just put them in a bucket with lid and put a battery powered airator in it. No problem for a couple of days.

    But where do you get the shrimp??

    I have an old 2 litre drink cooler/esky that I keep them in, stops them getting hot, aerator line goes in through the drink flap, and clasps onto the handle.

    Yeah, they drop dead pretty quick if the water gets warm.
