Best to perhaps discuss with the seller, and come to some compromise/arrangement,,...

I agree with BB speak to the breeder. I must say I have recently noticed some very poor quality shrimp being offered for sale - not here on Facebook- it is a pity that low grade shrimp are being offered as good shrimp. If culls are being offered then they should be offered as culls. This is especially noticeable with the Rilis there doesn't seem to be a standard for them .

[OzShrimp]

They look like poor grade yellows to me?

Can't help but chime in.... Since joining this forum I have never been disappointed with my purchases.

Got burned by vendors on other avenues. Go the SKF code of conduct!

PS sorry that your cherries did not colour up as promised :-(

They are supposed to be Sunkist?

[KillieOrCory]

It looks like 'sun kissed' them very briefly!

 

Maybe try putting something dark in the tank to see if they colour up a bit more.

I guess we all just want to make sure it wasn't bought of here.

[Gbang]

DAYUM :( definately a sunkist cull so sorry to hear man. 

[BlueBolts]

do NOT ask who i got them from as i do NOT name and shame , just saying newb be wary.

Fair enough, but do give the seller an opportunity to make amends..etc. We all make mistakes ..... even me, oh hang on, I was later proven right. Lol

[Squiggle]

Hey Pete, I have a feeling these are the Sunkist that I sold you &, as I have already said in the PM to you when you asked me about them, I will gladly replace any that you are unhappy with.

 

Also, my WP are below, if yours are not close to these then that could be causing the lack of colour. Can you post up your WP?

 

pH - 7.4

GH - 7dGH

KH - 3dKH

Nitrates - <5ppm

Ammonia - 0ppm

Nitrite - 0ppm

Temp - 23°

Only on SKF.
