Awesome!!!! Very very happy!!!
These dragonblood calceos are vibrant and beautiful, look exactly like in the picture. They all arrived healthy and can't stop picking at the biofilm ever since.
I was blown away with the shrimp I received! They were super colorful right away, which I didn’t expect because most shipped fish/shrimp loose a lot of color due to stress. This was not the case - they were all beautiful right away! I will absolutely be ordering more shrimp soon!!
Placed an order for 4 different shrimp types. All arrived in excellent Condition. Well packed. Very happy with the quality received.
Doing great,,Thanks a million, Greg Harden
All doing very good, thanks again GREG HARDEN
