Fun!

I love watching these guys! They arrived alive and healthy and there was even an extra shrimp in the bag!

Shrimp arrived, alive and healthy with no deaths. I ordered the red rili breader pack and it arrived with 11 shrimp.I just wish the color was more true.There is a little blue tint on some of them.

I ordered ten of these guys and got seven lovely bright red rilis, and three that are clearly culls. Two have more blue coloring than red, and one has a large dark spot on the white segment. Luckily I have a colony of wild type neocaridinas that I add culls to so I don't ruin my line. I can understand how one gets through, but just poor quality control to let two that are clearly blue through like that.

Amazing! None have died, unlike many ither places I've got them from where they die in a couple of days. They remain active and keep tank clean.

Gwen on the customer service team was exceptional! Almost all my shrimp survived shipping despite it being the middle of the summer. Will definitely order from them again.

Arrived fast! These babies arrived beautiful and very very active! As soon as I put them into the tank, they immediately started eating, swimming, etc. You'd think they'd always been there. This was my 3rd order from Shrimpy Business and I'm already planning my next!

Everything that I have received from Shrimpy Business has been top-notch. The Red Rilis are amazing. They're active, healthy, and hearty. I already have one berried and a couple saddled and ready to go! Thanks, guys for being so reliable!
I have a hard time getting a good pic of this tank because of the glare but you can see many of my babies in there.

I bought Red Rili shrimps and a Skittles batch and they are very happy and healthy. They were due to ship during a wicked cold snap, so Shrimpy Business postponed their departure. Im so happy I bought from a reputable breeder who cares for their animals. They arrived 100% alive and happy! Two months in and 4 are currently berried and the berried female that was shiped to us has 10 offspring that are thriving. THANK YOU!

My next batch of shrimp from my original purchase last year, Nov. The first shrimp were your basic Sakuras and I wanted a contrast (yes, I know I run the risk of losing the patterns/color). These are my non-furry babies and not breeding for shows/selling. Everyone is doing great and I finally have next generations in the tank!! Love this company & buying from you is a great pleasure & no stress. All the shrimp I have gotten have been diseased free and come in great condition! Picture only has 1 red rili showing but 95% of tank inhabitants came from Shrimpy Business!

My initial order of 10 arrived mostly DOA and with only 9 shrimp, so I reached out and sent in pictures. Nick responded in less than 24 hrs, and promptly shipped a new pack (and one extra!) of shrimp to me at no extra charge! They arrived today all alive, I acclimated them using the drip technique provided, and they seem to be doing well so far. Excellent customer service; I will definitely continue to order from this site!

This was my first time ordering shrimp and I am in love! The whole thing was fast good price and they all got here alive with an extra shrimp and a pregnant shrimp that sadly I believe was to stressed to live long but over all will buy from here again!

Originally when I opened the box I was disappointed with the color quality, but when I contacted the company they told me that they would color up when they settled and after only a few hours they looked beautiful!! One was berried and now I have babies all over my tank which is amazing! I will order from them again!

Lively & healthy

Ordered 5pck of these as well as the blues, they all arrived healthy in a mixed-gender group with a couple matured females. All survived including the extras! Very well handled and far from skittish. They swim slow enough to not trigger prey drive of the beta, and have been seen rearranging debris!

Ordered 5. Y'all sent 6, but 2 had died. Another died shortly after entering the tank. Of the remaining 3, 1 has molted and all seem to be thriving.

Hi Stephen, Thank you for your review! I am sorry to hera that only 3 out of 5 red rili shrimp remains. I have reached out to you via email to process the claim!
