Happy healthy shrimp!
They all arrived alive and transferred safely to their tanks. They were all quite juvenile sized, which is great because they will hopefully live long lives with me. The red ones were a beautiful color. My only complaint is they don't mark the bags, so if you order multiple shrimp types it can be difficult to discern the difference -- esp when the amanos are juveniles as they are the same size as neocaridina shrimp. Look for the thin dark strip down their back!

Absolutely fantastic. All 10 shrimp came alive and well and are thriving in my tank 1 month after purchase.
