from 125 reviewsAll arrived healthy looking and active. They disappeared into my aquarium plants and driftwood in less than a few minutes, and pop out once in a while. Wish they would stay out in the open more often but as long as they’re happy I guess 😂
All arrived healthy looking and active. They were in shipping for several days from drop off to delivery, so was worried for a while. However, they were well packaged so no casualties :)
I am local so picked the shrimp up myself from North Van they were in great condition and a beautiful variety I even received some extra shrimps along with my order! Would definitely recommend if looking to add colour to your tank.
Great color! Happy little shrimp! Drip acclimated and they all made it past their first week in the tank. So happy with them!
I also appreciate very much the customer service and individual attention to any issue. Very impressed. Waiting to buy again :-)
Shrimp arrived in great condition and were packed very well. They are all hard at working keeping the tank clean. They were a nice size and quality.
Excellent quality and we amazed at how they are shipped… and so well, after a few days I had 1 die… safe to say the other 4 are great after 2 weeks!
I’ve ordered some shrimps from here twice and they always come healthy and active! the shipping is fast as well and greatly packaged.
I got these little guys to do some of the clean up work in my tank. CSC delivered them promptly and they got right to work. And they fit tight in with the rest of the inhabitants so we're all happy.
I’m really enjoying these lil ones. 1 DOA , the others are hardy, healthy and very active. After acclimating slowly, they coloured up beautifully! As soon as I put them in my tank they began immediately foraging on the plants and made themselves at home. Packaging was undertaken with great care and concern for the shrimp’s comfort and safety during travel. Highly recommend CherryShrimpCanada!
I ordered these shrimp from Vancouver, and I live in Newfoundland! Thanks to our friends at Canada Post this package took over 2 weeks to deliver. Fortunately the shrimp were packed well and insulated with lots of water. All of my 20 shrimp survived the long journey and are now in their tank checking out their new hiding places. A couple of the ladies came in berried and there were even a couple little shrimplets in my tank this morning. Colouring on some of the shrimp was weak, but I figure that's the travel stress. Some of the darker coloured shrimp are gorgeous! Overall I am very pleased with my order and wouldn't hesitate to buy again.
I received 10+ shrimps are Alive after almost 5 or 8 days.
Well packaged, I would order again during summer.
I would highly reccomend buying from them they all were alive and healthy.the only issue was that it did not come to my door and canada post left it in my mail box so they were outside in the cold for about 6 hours. Would definitely order again
I ordered 5 of these little guys, they traveled all the way to Ontario. Arrived in excellent condition, heath seems great so far. Very active and fun to watch. Beautiful colours. I’d recommend buying your wee little shrimp friends from here. Good prices and service.
Thanks!
I have been extremely happy with my purchases with Cherry Shrimp Canada. All my shrimp are colorful and active. It's hard picking a favorite as they are all spectacular.
Collection: Freshwater Aquarium Snails
Creating a thriving aquarium isn’t just about beauty; it’s about building a balanced ecosystem where each organism plays a role in harmony with the others. Freshwater snails are natural partners in this symbiotic environment, working with shrimp, fish, and live plants to create a sustainable, healthy aquarium.
In a well-maintained tank, snails contribute to a balanced ecosystem through symbiosis—the mutually beneficial relationships they share with other tank inhabitants. As they graze on algae, decaying plant matter, and uneaten food, snails help keep your tank clean, preventing harmful waste buildup and maintaining water quality. This makes them ideal companions for shrimp, who thrive in clean water and help by consuming detritus that settles at the bottom. Together, shrimp and snails create a natural cleanup crew, each working to recycle nutrients that would otherwise cloud the water.
Fish also benefit from this ecosystem. With snails managing waste and algae levels, fish enjoy a clearer, less-stressed environment. Some snails, like Assassin Snails, even help manage snail populations in a gentle, natural way, ensuring that each snail species maintains its balance without overwhelming the tank.
Plants play a crucial role in this symbiotic relationship as well. They absorb nitrates and provide oxygen, both of which are critical for snails and other tank life. In return, snails like Zebra Nerite and Ramhorn Snails consume algae that can otherwise overgrow plants, keeping them healthy and allowing for better light penetration. This plant-snail dynamic enhances oxygen levels, reduces excess nutrients, and promotes a stable, well-balanced ecosystem.
The Benefits of Snails in a Tank Ecosystem:
- Algae Control: Naturally reduce algae growth, benefiting plants and water clarity.
- Nutrient Recycling: Convert waste into manageable forms, helping prevent buildup.
- Symbiotic Cleaning: Work with shrimp and fish for a cleaner, healthier habitat.
- Plant Health: Support plant vitality by controlling algae and reducing debris.
Incorporating snails into your aquarium fosters a self-sustaining ecosystem where every species has a purpose and the environment stays balanced. By adding freshwater snails from Cherry Shrimp Canada, you’re not only enhancing your tank’s visual appeal but also supporting a resilient, symbiotic community.
