    Bamboo Shrimps are filter cleaners originating from Southeast Asia. These Bamboo Shrimps makes great for community tanks as they are big enough not to get harassed or eaten by community fish.

    A general rule of thumb of keeping shrimps is 10 shrimps per gallon. Bamboo Shrimp are non-aggressive and spend most of their time eating algae and biofilm off plants, glass, and substrate.

    Bamboo Shrimp are easy to care for as they require remineralized RO water. When using fertilizer, make sure it does not contain copper as it is harmful to the shrimp’s health.

    Dead on Arrival Policy

    We guarantee live arrivals 100%.

    Although it's rare that shrimps will arrive DOA, it does occur due to the process of shipping and the amount of stress it puts on the shrimps so we always recommend overnight shipping. In an event of an DOA, a refund or reshipment will be issued for only the DOA (not including the shipping cost).

    To Claim DOA: 

    1. You must send a picture of the DOA in an unopened bag with 2 hours of delivery to hello@billyboiaquatics.com.
    2. Send an additional picture of the DOA outside of the bag, clear enough to count if more than one.

    Bamboo Shrimp

    1 of the 10 arrived DOA. Otherwise the rest have molted and seem to have acclimated fine. Watching them eat with their feeders is an enjoyment!

    Overall not bad

    My biggest complaint is that they use fedex to ship them. In my experience fedex is unreliable and in the delivery of my bamboo shrimp they were delayed. I was worried they were going to be dead. I was pleased they sent 3 shrimp when I ordered 2. One was dead upon arrival. The other two did fine for a few days. One shrimp seemed extra stressed and wasn’t eating and eventually died a few days after acclimation. My one remaining shrimp is still going strong and eating well. So far so good. I think these shrimp are just extra sensitive and the shipping is very stressful on them. I would probably buy from them again.
