Shipping was quick and they were package well. Unfortunately 2 did not make it. I reached out to customer service and they were quick to respond and offer a refund or a gift card. The other shrimp are doing great
If you're reading these negative reviews about shrimp dying shortly after arrival, don't worry too much. The key to a successful shrimp introduction is proper acclimation, and that means slowly drip-acclimating them to your tank's water parameters. As long as your tank is well-established and you've tested your water for things like ammonia, nitrites, and pH, your shrimp should be perfectly fine. A little patience and care during the acclimation process goes a long way in ensuring their survival. So, relax just take the time to acclimate them properly, and you'll have happy, healthy shrimp!
also.. they were kind enough to send me an extra shrimp!
I purchased the pumpkin breeder back and received 11 very colorful and healthy adults. Some where already berried, and there were several teeny tiny babies included as well! Very pleased!
Bought 10 shrimp from a breeder pack got 7 total shrimp. Not 7 live shrimp and 3 dead. Just 7/10 of the live shrimp I ordered. Just get them from your lfs or somewhere else online.
Very pleased with my breeder pack purchase. Within a day or two of arrival I found a good number of tiny fry!
I bought a breeder pack of pumpkin shrimp for a new setup. All but one made it through shipping and acclimation. They were completely transparent when I got them, and I was a little disappointed. I knew they would colour up once they weren't so stressed but given how transparent they were, I didn't think they would colour up to be REALLY orange which is what I had hoped for. I couldn't have been more wrong! It took two days, and nibbles, but OH MY did they colour up! The pictures don't do them justice they are much darker and more vibrant in person. I'm thrilled with my purchase!
Ordered these a snail some yellow back shrimp and some fish so far fish are doing the best but as for shrimp dying left and right water is good others I did not get from this business are doing well I’m very disappointed in this company they used to be so good 😔
Five stars! The 30 orange Neocaridina shrimp arrived in excellent condition. While one seemed a bit unwell or might have died from shock, and there was one subsequent death, the rest are thriving and appear very healthy. They seem happy in their new environment, and I'm hopeful they'll start reproducing soon. Additionally, we let the first few grow a bit and then sautéed them with garlic, mushrooms, and shallots—they were delicious. Overall, very satisfied with these vibrant shrimp!
These shrimp are great! I got the breeder pack and was sent the exact number of males and females stated. All were alive and healthy when I received them and shipping was extremely quick. I was worried because 5 days after I got them (for no reason but my own) about half of them died. I was very upset, but the remaining quickly started breeding in the following weeks. Now I am counting 25+ babies and 2 more have eggs! Would highly recommend.
I got the breeder pack and just over a month of having my orange shrimp, I have my first babies! They arrived healthy except one didn't make the journey, but there was an extra shrimp to make up for it. So far the orange crew is doing amazing with several females berried and one that successfully had babies. Their colors are all vibrant, with slightly different shades that is fun to look at.
2 months after receiving, these shrimp are doing great! They acclimated to tank with snails and tetras. Very great addition to the tank!
Not only did my 10 breeder pack come with an extra adult - there were also babies when I opened it up!
Ordered another breeder pack this time got pumpkin orange all came in alive and healthy and look amazing. Will definitely keep doing business here.
I have been super excited since I ordered these guys. Easy to order and track shipping! Easy, quick communication with the business. They all arrived just fine with a stowaway fry. Did the acclimation process’s they recommend and…!
It turns out that they are the perfect addition to my aquatic world. Busy, busy, busy lil guys.
Thanks for the education on the lil guys too

10/10 ! Fast and safe shipping all the shrimp were alive upon delivery and in great health! Out of all the online shops to order shrimp from this site is the best hands down.
I got all my shrimps safe and sound (a day early even!) Many of the females are already full of eggs!
All my shrimp arrived alive and well and came earlier than expected.
Arrived earlier than expected! Also got some babies born in their breather bag. Absolutely love them!
Unfortunately these little guys only last 5 days. I lost 3 of them to the fish heaven.
beautiful shrimp, a bit of variety in color (some more yellow some deep red/orange) that looks stunning in my tank. ordered 10, 10 arrived looking healthy. one passed within the first few days (unknown causes, possibly failed molt) but the other nine are having an absolute ball and two more have successfully molted already ! very healthy happy shrimps :-)
The shrimp arrived well-packaged and in perfect health. I was pleasantly surprised to find some healthy fry in with my shrimp! I love them so much and they go perfectly well with my University of Tennessee Orange themed nano tank! Thank you so much.
This is not my first purchase from Shrimpy business. The shrimps came in looking pale, but that was to be expected after shipping stress. After about 2 months of settling in they are very nice and orange. I'm eyeing the Bloody Mary and Green Jades next. Thanks Shrimpy business!
