Blue Velvet Shrimp - 8 Pack

This was my first "live fish" order ever, so I was a little nervous to try.After ordering it took a long time for them to arrive. In fact, they came a day later than the 2 week window. I was planning to request a refund, however, I found a small box on my doorstep when I got home that day.I didn't know what it was as I opened the box and picked up a jiggly thing wrapped in newspaper. I found myself holding a bag of water and upon seeing little blue things darting about, I finally realized that these are the shrimp!The order was for 8 shrimp, but there were way more in the bag. So, the price per shrimp was really cheap. Some were even carrying eggs! Most of them are a brilliant blue color. See photos.Overall, my rollercoaster of an experience turned out to be great once the multitude of shrimp arrived after the slow transit time. Would definitely order again.

All the shrimp were alive and did very well adjusting to the tank.I get new shrimp from different buyers to help the genetics of my tank shrimp.

All the shrimp arrived safe and sound, the shipping time was very fast, the color of the shrimp was vibrant even with the stress of the travel and they all seem to be in perfect health! They were darting all around the bag when I opened it, 8 shrimp, as ordered, all alive. I am VERY pleased with how this transaction went. You always expect a casualty or two when dealing with live aquatic animal purchases but not this time! Also, side note, the shrimp were the perfect age. They weren’t brand new tiny babies (too fragile) and they weren’t full grown adults either, which is good since their natural life span is only a handful of years anyway. I am very happy with this purchase

Only got 7. Picture is of the one that wasn't really blue like the rest. Kind of blue with 3 black stripes. Suspect a hybrid that got in there somehow. The 6 are very blue and dark/solid color. Very nice. Half of them were on the small side and had to be put in a grow tank, the other 4 were big enough to not get sucked into the filter. There was no heat pack even though they were shipped into sub-zero temperatures, but none died at 52 degrees. All healthy and active

Pale unhealthy shrimp that died shortly after a month despite giving this seller two chances

They arrived a few days early. Packaged well except the bags leaking a little.1 was DOA, looks like it tried to molt in the bag. The largest (female) is a chocolate shrimp which I understand can happen, but I would rather have all blue. The shrimp are very pretty though, and seem to be acclimating well. Its not a bad price for 8 shrimp. We'll see how things turn out once they are added to the tank. Overall I'm happy with them*update: I put them in the tank and they seem to be adjusting well, also I realized the chocolate one is berried with a few eggs which is a happy surprise. I'm happy with the purchase

All arrived alive and have lived well past purchase date. They’re lively and nice in size

These little guys came in all well and accounted for!They even sent extras to cover any that were possibly DOA.Thankfully they all made it! We love them and they’re so beautiful!
