Disclaimers Upon Arrival
When your order first arrives please expect the shrimp to be discolored and in an idle state. The coloration may arrive dull or less colorful compared to the photos due to a number of reasons such as:
Stressful shipping process
New environment or surroundings
Nonoptimal temperatures or water parameters
If this does occur, we recommend acclimating the shrimp to the new water parameters and temperatures. This process may take about a week or more for them to fully regain their coloration. Please keep in mind that they are trying to adjust to their new environment, but with the optimal care and diet it will allow them to recover quickly.
