    NOTES:
    Most of the shrimp you receive will be juveniles approximately 20-40 days old that are about 1/4th the size of a fully grown adult (~0.25") and will continue to get more color like the pictured shrimp as their exoskeleton grows and thickens (two to four weeks after you receive them.) This auction is for related and visually similar shrimp from the colony, not the exact shrimp pictured. Variation is expected. Males can carry some transparency into adulthood. Females are typically opaque as adults. Cherry shrimp have a lifespan of 1-2 years.
    It's common for shrimp to temporarily lose their color as a stress response to shipping and environment and can sometimes a
    appear blueish or clear. This is a normal stress response in shrimp and their color will return after being acclimated to your tank, usually within two to three days.
    The product listing photo was taken with a 10x macro lens to capture details. Most cherry shrimp reach a maximum size of about 1-1.5 inches. Be mindful of your current tank stock and consider predatory livestock that may feed on small shrimp.
