Reading today's numbers
Only one vendor currently lists Cardinal Sulawesi Shrimp, so today's range ($12.80–$16.00) reflects that vendor's own listings rather than a cross-vendor comparison. When judging a price, the median ($14.00) is the better anchor than the low: the cheapest listing can be a large-pack price or a lower grade. If a quote is well above the median, check the vendor table above to see what grade or pack you're comparing against. Note that none of the 4 tracked listings are in stock right now, so today's stats reflect the most recently listed prices rather than shrimp you can buy today.

Price history
The per-shrimp market median for Cardinal Sulawesi Shrimp has held steady across all 50 days we've tracked it. That's normal here: US dwarf shrimp prices hold still rather than drifting — genuine repricings are vanishingly rare across the whole index (we measured this across the whole market) — so today's numbers above are a dependable benchmark, not a snapshot of a jittery market.
