Maintain temperatures between 68°F to 78°F (20°C to 26°C), pH levels of 6.5 to 8.0, and water hardness between 6 to 10 dGH. Keep ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels low through regular water changes and filtration. Provide hiding places and live plants in a tank of at least 5 gallons. Use gentle filtration, provide a consistent light cycle of 8 to 10 hours, and feed them a balanced diet of algae, vegetables, and shrimp pellets. Consistency and monitoring are crucial for their well-being.

I ordered 10 Blue velvets in November. They all arrived alive and in good condition. There were a couple of extras. I did a slow acclimation over a few hours. All the shrimp acclimated and did well being introduced into the tank. I lost one the first week but everyone else has been good since. They are not breeding size yet so I can’t report there but they are a beautiful blue color. I would highly recommend.

First time ordering shrimp online and I was expecting some losses due to heat and shipping but all arrived alive, vivid blue and healthy. I received 11 young shrimp in various sizes up to about an inch long. Nice grade, mostly solid blue colors. Packaging was not impressive and the shrimp were in a small, thin plastic bag that seems like it could burst but they all arrived alive and did not seem stressed. I used the drip method to acclimate them, added the shrimp to my cycled tank and they immediately started actively looking for food and settled in quickly. I noticed parasites on the head and shells of a few shrimp but these should come off with the shell when they shed.24 hours later: No casualties and they still look vivid blue, happy and healthy.

Beautiful little shrimps, arrived on time and were packaged very well. I was a little worried when I opened the box because they were all a muddy brick redish brown color but I figured it was from shipping stress and it was, they colored up almost immediately after being added to my tank. I'm not entirely convinced that they are all Bloody Marys though, a few of them are quite opaque and look more like Painted Fire Reds. At first I assumed this may be because they were about to molt but it's been a week now and most have molted and there are still a few opaque ones. Also there are a few with white legs and whiskers... take this with a grain of salt since I'm new to Bloody Marys but I was led to believe (by the internet not the seller) that true Bloody Mary shrimp would be entirely red with red legs/whiskers as well since it's their flesh that is colored not their shells. Either way I am not at all disappointed, they are healthy and busy and extremely bright red. The seller was quick to respond to questions and highly recommended on various shrimp and fish forums. One thing that really surprised me is that these little shrimp are absolutely fearless, I have them in with some nano fish who were very curious about their new tank mates and the shrimp didn't even seem to notice them, just continued happily munching away on the moss and driftwood. All photos are unedited but were taken with a samsung galaxy note 5 which does tend to adjust contrast/saturation a tiny bit. The lighting changes depending on time of day so some photos have a sunrise/red tint to them, sorry!
