Livestock Disclaimer:

All shrimp are sold unsexed and shipped as a mixed batch. We cannot guarantee specific sex ratios or individual selection. Please note that shrimp may display natural variation in size, colour, and pattern. Minor differences from product photos are normal.

As with all live animals, some stress or colour loss may occur during shipping, but shrimp typically regain their full appearance once settled in. While we take every precaution to ensure safe delivery, we cannot be held responsible for losses due to improper acclimation or unsuitable tank conditions.
