Live Arrival Guarantee

We want to ensure your peace of mind when you order, so we guarantee that you will get the amount of shrimp you ordered or your money back!

We also don’t want shrimp to needlessly die so here is the fine print:

Weather:

If the weather is too extreme for shipping (below 40 or above 90), we will hold your order and reach out to you about the best time to ship. We do occasionally provide heat packs or cold packs but they can sometimes do more harm than good.

In case of deaths:

We add +1 shrimp for every 10 shrimp in the unfortunate event that there are deaths during shipping. If there is more than one death we will reimburse you for the dead shrimp but you must do the following:

Take 3 clear pics of the dead shrimp in the unopened bag next to the shipping label within 2 hours of the package arriving.
Send us a message or an email at teacherspetnw@gmail.com with a clear description of what happened to the package to help me diagnose the problem.
Once we review the details, a refund will be sent to you based on the number of shrimp, this may take up to 48 hours

Shipping

We do not reimburse shipping. We will reimburse you for dead shrimp, or give you a credit for the shrimp and free shipping on a future order.

Rare cases that void the guarantee:

Please note, in some circumstances, our DOA (death on arrival) policy will be voided:

If the package is unsuccessful delivery on the 1st attempt (I will ship to the address you provided on file)
The package is left outside for an extended period of time during extreme weather. (Once shipped, a tracking number will be provided, it's your responsibility to take them inside as soon as they are delivered. If the package is left outside more than 2 hrs. from the time of delivery, shipping guarantee will be voided)
The package is lost due to package theft (If this happens, please contact your local USPS or UPS to file a claim)

While we do our best to ensure our shrimp are comfortable all the way until your front door, once they are in your possessions, it is your responsibility:

to make sure your water parameters are within the acceptable ranges for that shrimp type. We recommend having a water testing kit ready at all times.
to make sure to drip acclimate the shrimp fish into your tank correctly. We suggest drip acclimating for at least 1 hr before putting them in your tank.
to make sure your water doesn't fluctuate too much during the day in their first 7 days.

Great looking shrimp. Will buy from again

Good

shrimps came today and so far are great!

Really White

I love the white amanos! They stand out very nicely against substrate and driftwood. All arrived safe.

Happy Customer

All shrimp arrived alive and well and received one extra. They are small but I expect they'll grow quickly.

My shrimp went crazy for it!

My shrimp loved it! My galaxy Rasboras were curious and pecked at it but left it alone for the most part, but I didn't even know I had as many shrimp as I did until I saw everyone gathering for their feast

Great orange rili shrimp

Daniel has done it again with a bag of beautiful, happy shrimp. I have some blood orange from a few months ago and this time decided to add rili so I can be a better judge of when the ladies are berried! As a first-year shrimp owner, I appreciate not just the healthy shrimp but all the articles Daniel provides to help answer my questions and be successful. I picked up the shrimp in person at a time we both agreed to - thank you for offering this to area residents.

Great shop !

Always a pleasure doing business here and the customer service is above and beyond, shrimps came super fast and all nice and healthy. Definitely coming back for more !

Continually impressed with Teacher's pet

Ordered Blue Dream Shrimp this time around. Received carefully packed shrimp in very good condition. Colors are beautiful as always. When shrimp are in this condition is makes acclimation that much easier.

I have several small nano projects planned and I plan to get livestock from here.

Deep red Bloody Mary

Beautiful little fellas.

Best shrimp guy I know.

Daniel is the best. He even worked around his moving schedule to make sure that I got my shrimp pickup. Very happy and always recommending Teacher's Pet to everyone I know.

Beautiful orange color!

5-star experience! The blood orange color is striking and very vivid, definitely more orange than any of the shrimp from my LFS. The owner was also very responsive to questions I had before placing the order. If you are hesitating about ordering shrimp online- don’t worry- they are well packed and arrived safely. I ordered 20 shrimp and actually received 24 (22 adults + 2 little babies). The photo is true to color, no edits, look how orange!

Used for tank setup

I used this with DSP to speed up the cycling of my new tank. Worked great! Planning to use it weekly now during water changes. Highly recommend!

Excellent color and size

The shrimp came in healthy and alive there were no DOA with this type and the seller is super friendly and answers all your questions!!
