Live fish are typically shipped on Thursdays for Friday delivery, weather permitting.
Because shipping live fish is highly sensitive, all live fish orders require overnight shipping and may include additional shipping charges.
Shipments may be delayed during extreme heat, cold, or severe weather to help protect the health and safety of the fish.
Please make sure someone is available to receive the delivery on the scheduled delivery date.
- Color: Pure white or translucent, providing a beautiful contrast in planted aquariums.
- Size: Adults typically grow to about 0.75–1.25 inches.
- Eggs: The "snowball" name refers to the pure white eggs carried by the females.
- Peaceful: They have a gentle nature and coexist harmoniously with other small tank inhabitants.
- Scavengers: Snowball Shrimp are excellent at cleaning the tank by grazing on algae, biofilm, and uneaten food.
- Breeding: They reproduce in the tank, with babies being miniature versions of the adults and requiring specific care to avoid being eaten by other fish or sucked into filters.
