About Us

Welcome to Teacher’s Pet!

I’m Daniel, a school teacher turned shrimp enthusiast! As an educator, I've spent years supporting young minds in the classroom, but my fascination of aquariums and all things shrimp led me here—breeding high-quality shrimp.

At Teacher’s Pet, my goal is to share the fascinating world of shrimp with fellow hobbyists and newcomers alike. The world is a complicated place, but keeping shrimp brings me interest and peace and I hope to share with you. 

I try to balance high quality and affordability. I cull heavily and when I import, I try to only get shrimp with breeders and farmers that I've grown to trust. That being said, I want others to be able to access my hobby, so I try to keep prices affordable so that you can have some of these lil guys in your tanks too. 

Join me in exploring this wonderful hobby! Whether you’re looking for advice, tips, or the perfect shrimp for your aquarium, I’m here to help. Together, let’s make every tank a thriving shrimp nirvana! Anybody can be a teacher's pet here.

Thank you for visiting. I’m excited to share my passion with you!

Warmly,
Daniel

Arrived alive and well. Great looking shrimp, active, and doing great!!

Love the greens.

I really like the olive green these guys show. Definitely one of my new faves. Would definitely recommend these guys!

Great quality shrimp

I've ordered neos twice and have been super happy both times. I've gotten a few extra shrimp with each order. They've arrived healthy and are doing great! This is my go to shop for online shrimp.

Better than shrimp up aquatics

Much better than shrimp up aquatics for a competitive price. The ones I ordered from shrimp up were mixed slightly with blue morphs or were just entirely orange. Much better quality from here. Also shipped from across the US with no deaths days later 10/10

Beautiful

Shipped across the US and also gave me an extra incase of any deaths not only are they lively and awesome looking but they no deaths days later. They come pretty small but that just means more time with them. 10/10

A MUST HAVE!!

my Neo shrimps go absolutely crazy for the lil shrimp stix, i put one in the gravel and they last about 25-30 minutes and i cannot take my eyes off of them the whole time!!

IM SO IN LOVE WITH THWM!!!

I am in love with my shrimp they were packaged so well fed ex nor ups could hurt them. They came in extremely healthy and they are thriving I won't go anywhere else for my shrimp this is now my go to . I purchased 26 shrimp yes really .... and I will be buying more

Favorite seller

This is my third time ordering and I’m still so impressed. So much healthier than my closest fish store, plus I not only got an extra, 3 were berried as well and appear to be keeping their eggs. Thanks so much.

UPS made a horrible mistake and delayed my package for 3 days over the weekend. I was expecting at least a third to be dead by the time they got delivered but no, all 10 shrimps were very much alive and healthy, and the packaging was undeniably very protective.

excellent

I ordered the blue diamonds from a few different sources and i cant choose who was best all three gave perfect blue diamonds and fast but i did order two from teachers pet

Love them!

My second time ordering from them and all I can think about is ordering more shrimp lol

Love this stuff!

Creates lots of extra snacks for the shrimpies… and at an excellent price!!! Definitely will purchase again!
