Florida customers, shrimp shipping is back down to $10 UPS Ground until we are back up in the 90s next year!
DO NOT SELECT "FREE PLANT SHIPPING" AT CHECK OUT WITH SHRIMP IN YOUR CART!
All shrimp shipping will default to UPS Next Day Air at check out. I only ship shrimp overnight. If your daytime temps are in the mid-90s or higher, or nighttime temps are in the mid-40s or lower, your order will be delayed or refunded for the safety of the shrimp.
FYI - I only ship fully colored up juvies and sub-adult shrimp as they do much better in shipping and acclimating to your new tank compared to adults!

For aquarists who want a lively and colorful shrimp colony, my "Skittle" Neocaridina Shrimp is the perfect choice, offering a fun, natural way to bring a rainbow of colors to any freshwater tank.
I found out about Daku from Reddit. Buying shrimp online is always a tough gamble. You might not get the shrimp quality that's advertised and thus overpay for shrimp. My local pet stores have Neocaridina for about 4.99$ each, so it was easy to justify the price of these skittle pack of Neocaridina.
I am local to Florida so the shrimp arrived the following day which was amazing. I've had shrimp sent to me from 2 hours away driving come in a few days so Daku knows the importance of minimizing ship times for their aquatic friends. The shrimp were all alive and well, I think I even got an extra shrimp or two as well. I would definitely buy from Daku again. Bonus points for Daku providing a whole page of information about their shrimps parameters and general care information. I could not be happier with my purchase!
Quick and Healthy arrival. Lively shrimp, vibrant colors great size
All came alive but really small so hoping they all make it. Right now they are hiding in the plants. All the plsnts I purchased for a diff tank are phenomenal.
I've purchased two dozen shrimp, several rainbowfish, and 6 plants recently. All are healthy and doing well.
All arrived alive and thriving.
