On Thursday Feb 21 I got 22 fire red shrimp in the mail. They were smaller than I expected, and for the most part , Lacking in color. They range in size from 1/4 inch to3/4 inches. Only one of them is a nice red, and he's about 5/8 of an inch. All of the largest ones are a nice orange color. Even a few of the smallest ones as well.
But roughly half of them have little or no color at all, even a few that are 5/8 inch.
Is this to be expected? The shipper says that due to the stress of shipping, it could take up to a week for them to regain full color. Is this true?
