Swimming Creatures™ Premium Neocaridina Shrimp – A Perfect Combo to Brighten Your Aquarium! (10 Rili Mix)

I waited a good while before I wrote this review. I am new with shrimp, but was so pleased that all the shrimp arrived alive and healthy and have flourished in their tank. They are beautiful thank you!

All shrimps arrived in excellent condition. I may have lost 2 or 3 due to the stress after drip acclimatation and introduction in tanks but overall way less expensive than the top shrimp shop results on the internet. To top it all, the orange colors are gorgeous, they pop more than the red ones. The Amano shrimps started immediately to eat. All shrimps were adults, no teeny tiny baby shrimps.

The media could not be loaded. Felt nervous ordering shrimp online, but these shrimp are great! Shipping took less than a week. Came in an insulated box and were double bagged (see photo). Had 13 adults in all and found 2 newborns mixed in. Considering the price it feels like a great deal. All shrimp were alive on arrival. As soon as they came In I put them in a vase and dropped in an algae waffer; within 5 minutes all but 2 were eating. After drip accumulating for 2 hours I dropped them in the tank and all were very lively and swimming around. So far I have had them a couple days and lost 2 but the rest seem very healthy and active. Color is very bright and full. Very satisfied overall and put in another order for my workplace tank. Will definitely be a return customer.

I ordered a variety of colors from this seller to put together a skittles tank. I think all shrimp - including brown wild type are cute and fascinating. So, I am clearly not overly concerned with grades and color quality, etc. All I can say on that is these shrimp were all appropriately vividly colored and very cool to look at. :)A majority of the shrimp arrived spunky and commenced ravenously grazing in the tank after a good drip acclimation. Received one or more berried females in each color, which was a definite bonus. They all seem to have held their eggs through the move, so I am super excited about that. In the past week, my tank has been covered with successful molts, which I consider a good sign.I did have a bit of bad luck with the initial shipment of red cherries from this seller. The weather turned unexpectedly cold mid-shipment and the bags on top just had a bit more exposure I think - no one's fault really. But, only 5 of the red made the trip alive. The seller responded to my message through Amazon within 24 hours, as promised. Replacements were immediately provided with no argument and I now have 6 live ones in their place - so 1 extra. :) I did do my best to provide the seller pictures of the bag/bodies immediately upon receipt before opening, which I recommend you take on any livestock purchase. It's only fair to the seller.Overall, I am very happy with my purchases and the seller's willingness to respond to and resolve issues quickly when they did come up. Can't ask for much better! :)

The media could not be loaded. Came in great they had a thing for them to hang out on and stuff just so there not in a boring bag and it came with 11 shrimp but one was a little iddy bitty baby so it ended up being fish food before she got to the bottom 😭😭😭

Three came in dead and one died the next day, but one came with eggs. Also check your bag if you order I found 2 very micro small baby’s in the bag they are hiding in the grass now but can’t wait for them to reappear in a couple months and see what color they are.

Let me preface by saying I have a fully established and planted tank with 2 raspboras, assassin snails and many shrimp—and this is the 2nd time I have purchased from this company. I received my order and had 1 DOA which I had expected. I do the drip acclimation method which is lengthy but best for my shrimp babies. After releasing them into the tank I make sure to keep the lights low etc yet within 4 days, I had lost an additional 4 shrimp. Normally I don’t write reviews but I woke up this morning to see my assassin snail dining on the 4th shrimp. So including the DOA, that makes 5 dead shrimp from this purchase of 10. I am disappointed. Yes the colors were amazing and yes there were 2 berried shrimp but unfortunately I have lost half of what I paid for in a matter of days.

Ordered 10 of the orange shrimp. I was very hesitant to order anything live online. I’m in Oklahoma and did not pay the overnight fee. Order shipped on a Thursday and took until Wednesday to get here. Nervous they would all be doa was an understatement. Once opening my box I see10 live shrimp (3 berried), plus two extra,8 tiny tiny babies ALL alive!!! It’s been 24 hours and I’ve lost just one from a molt fail and assuming a little stressed from the trip. They are all active, eating and seemingly enjoying the new home. The packaging was exceptional and the price point is worth every penny. I can’t wait to buy more colors. No regrets here and extremely pleased!
