The problem is if you sell to people, especially online, you can't know everyone's water chemistry. I guess this is why a lot of places enforce a policy of no refunds unless the fish or shrimp are dead on arrival. This isn't making me very excited to sell shrimp, but not sure what I can do because they seem to breed out of control.Invertebrate are 10 times more sensitive than fish on water chemistry such as TDS, metals, nitrate, and hardness. Some tap water contain heavy metals such as zinc, lead and copper that are toxic to shrimp but OK for fish or human consumption. Under those conditions, not sure if a few hours drip acclimation will necessarily help.
I use prime which claims it helps with metals, but I'm not sure if it actually does.
