Hi Jasper, I am sorry to hear about this situation! Not to worry, I'll take care of you! I have reached out to you via email to follow up with the claim options.
I ordered some shrimp (sakuras & red rilis) for the Black Friday sale. They were shipped as stated (UPS 2nd Day). UPS accidentally sent the package on a round trip across the country (sorting mistake) 🤦♀️, Shrimpy Business was quick to respond to my emails/concerns. And when the shrimp did arrive they were in good health, active and no DOA. This tells me that their animals are in great health at their facility. They were also packaged really well, with proper heat packs & insulation.
I will be buying from Shrimpy Business again, for sure!! 🦐
