What size of the shrimp i am buying and will there be mix males & females ?

We state shipping sizes on every product's page, under Size for Sale section, please make sure you pay attention to the listing that you are buying.

However, you can find the general information here

For Neocaridina Cherry Shrimp Species: shipping size is from 1.4 to 1.8cm in size. In some species, the size can be up to 2cm but not bigger. Amano shrimp can be up to 3cm is maximum.

Provided stock level is sufficient, every group of 10, we always picked 2-3 males and the rest will be females. If you are buying less than 10 species of each colour, we will just randomly scoop from our tanks. This is 99% will be all females.

We DO NOT sell just males only, we would like to reserve the males for our customers whom buying groups of shrimps from us.

For Caridina Shrimp Species: shipping size is from 0.9 to 1.4cm maximum. Common size that we send out with orders is 1cm. Therefore please don't expect them to be big shrimp. And because of this size, we cannot tell sexes at all on caridina species. And the shrimp will do much better in adapting to your aquarium and would do much better.

From time to time, we will add on some breeding groups etc and they will be stated with how many males & females and the price accordingly and this is base on WYSIWYG basis.

We've priced our shrimp according to their shipping sizes. If you would like adults and sex-able shrimp, please be expecting to pay 2.5 times more for each shrimp. We would like to set this straight, and in public writing for everyone can see, rather than you messaging us.
