Excellent quality Amano Shrimp
By Amber from Guelph, Canada on March 23, 2024
We always buy from Angel fins , they have the best prices and best quality livestock, In the hundreds of fish we’ve bought here from them maybe had a total of 10 deaths (age related) and 2 DOA of shrimps which is expected, the doa were replaced immediately and I will always support this business, even their plants the in vitro are excellent quality compared to everywhere else. Our recent purchase was 8 Amano Shrimp and they’re excellent cleaners for our plants in our 90 gallon setup, great price again for these sold here.

Most Resilient Shrimp
By Eugénie Samson-Daoust from Quebec, Canada on October 28, 2022
I bought 4 of them 4 months ago, got 4 different sizes which makes it easier to tell them apart. All of them are still hyperactive, devouring everything they can get their little legs on. I love their personalities!

Beautiful in their own way
By FourBrownCats from Guelph, Ontario, Canada on September 30, 2022
Despite being less colourful than my blue dream shrimp, these Amanos are beautiful in their own way. Once added to the community tank, they immediately began looking for something to clean. I would not say my tank is algae free, but algae is part of aquatic life, and the shrimp are thriving.
