Keep the listing and arrival notes together so you can refer back without relying on memory.

Why purchase records matters

A simple record of seller, date, claimed variety, and shipment condition helps track later observations. In a shrimp-focused aquarium, the choice should also support steady routines, visible livestock, and access for basic care.

Before you act, check seller details, claimed stock, water information, and order date. Compare the item with the rest of the setup and note any recent change that could affect what you are seeing.

A careful way to proceed

save the receipts and note only what you directly observed. Make one adjustment at a time and watch how the aquarium responds during normal observation.

Avoid turning one shipment's outcome into a universal claim about a seller. Labels, products, and tank conditions differ, so use a reliable guide as context and record what you directly observe. If uncertainty remains, ask an experienced shrimp keeper before making a consequential change.
