Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 300 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the health and vibrant colors of the shrimp, noting their excellent quality upon arrival and how well they thrive in their new tanks. The delivery service is frequently highlighted for its speed, secure packaging, and careful handling, often including heat packs to ensure the animals' well-being during transit. Many appreciate the extra shrimp, complimentary food, and thoughtful gifts like 3D-printed keyrings included with their orders, enhancing the overall purchasing experience. The company's communication and customer service also receive high marks, with people noting the helpfulness and responsiveness of the staff. However, some customers reported issues with shrimp arriving dead or dying shortly after introduction to their tanks, with concerns raised about high nitrate levels in the water they were shipped in. A few reviewers expressed hesitation about ordering again due to these experiences, despite the company's policy of including extra shrimp to account for such situations.

Hi Dean ! Thank you for your feedback. No tracking number is because when you placed an order, you didn't put down any mobile number therefore Royal Mail couldn't send you a text with the tracking details. We use automatic system linked with Royal Mail to handle all the labels, and emails with order updates sending out at every stage. On the other hand, even with tracking number, and with Tracked 24 service chosen, you will not be able to tell what time the parcel would be arriving anyway. But we will look into fixing our email where it would be including the tracking number, rather than relying on Royal Mail.

Customer Service at its very best

Customer Service at its very best, my second order of shrimp, all top quality, well packaged and delivered safely. I was even given extra shrimp as the postage charge for a Saturday was high, something they didn't have to do. Cant recommend enough, will definitely remain my go to for the future. Keep doing what your doing and have a great Xmas!

Great Service

Ordered 10 No. Bloody Mary shrimp which turned up on the agreed day, much to the delight of my daughter. Had to rearrange the day of delivery at short notice due to a work change which was accommodated without a question.

My shrimp tank is absolutely thriving…

My shrimp tank is absolutely thriving since I started ordering from Shrimp Corner! The neocardinia have very strong colours and are very hardy compared to other sellers I have tried, for such a reasonable price too. Thank you shrimp corner! I will always buy my shrimp from here.
