Guarantee: Live Arrival Guaranteed.

  1. Guarantee covers the cost of the shrimps and fishes only, shipping cost is not refundable . 
  2. Please provide clear photos and videos of DOA’s in unopened shipping bag right after arrival (within 2 hours).  DOA will be refunded.
  3. If clear photos and videos are not received within 2 hours or you do not take delivery at the first attempt, the guarantee is void.

Photos and videos must show the dead shrimps body in unopened bag (dead shrimps will laid down on the bottom of shipping bag, live shrimps will hang on the Java Moss,  they will not moving when water is very cold which is normal for winter shipping). Unclear photos and videos is not acceptable. (updated this, after meet one eBay scammer who abuse eBay return policy on Nov 20, 2018).

If you think it is DOA, you can open outside shipping bag (we double or triple bags shrimps) to take clear photos and videos, but DON’t open last bag. You can float shrimps with last bag together in your tank for temperature acclimation (30~60 minutes) in winter. You don’t have to open it if it is DOAs, this will protect buyer for their guarantee. Because, scammer always said “I opened bag, smell bad, I flushed it or dumped them in garbage.”  Shrimps will “sleep” and not moving in very cold water when you received the parcel. Please don’t worry about it, after temperature acclimation they should be wake up and moving normally.

Minimum order:

  • Question:
    • Why introduce a minimum order value for pick up and shipping .
  • Answer:
    • We offer health local bred shrimp and fish with affordable price to people. If we own a fish store, we will happy to take any orders. But we are not, we have limit time for this hobby daily . That is the reason why we build this site, saving time to answer repeat questions and make life simple.
    • Handling time for pick up each order is 15~30 min(waiting people come, bag it, etc, sometime people cancelled it last minute  or never show up) , and 30~60 min for shipping (make Styrofoam box, bag it and drop off at courier office, etc ). We can only spend maximum 1 hour for pick up daily, or max 2 hours for shipping from Monday to Tuesday.
    • If you don’t need that many fish and shrimps, you can share with your friend. We can bag it separately. We won’t take any order less than minimum.
