Hi all
We are fully aware of the post of Vin and his foul language for a professional shrimp breeder & business, isn't it just beautiful ? There are always 2 sides to the story. So believe what you want to believe.
Bear in mind, this has been 3 years process of breeding fancy tigers for us. Vin was made aware of them clearly since 2019 that we have sources these shrimp elsewhere, and we have been posting photos and videos up of our breeding process.
We made a big mistake when staying loyal to Vin and giving him the credit to the name of these shrimp, but with our own bred shrimp. We should have just call them our own line because we've actually bred them to sell in the UK, not him.
Regarding Storm products, we found out that the products have been substituted and wasn't what they used to be. We reported to Vin straightaway at the end of 2021 and stop selling them immediately (by marking them out of stock). All we get from Vin was oh they are just colour differences. And we have also notified some of the big breeders about this problem as we were the one who sold these products to them.
We've been discussed with Vin for the last 3 days, we refused to provide Vin with the screenshots that he wanted. He was swearing non stop in our conversation and also on the post that you have read. This is not the first time this has happened. He was banned from previous contests in China for the same reason - please see the picture attached.
There is not much to discuss about this as we have made our mistake by giving him the credit where it shouldn't be his. Lesson learned ! Either fork out 500-800euros a shrimp with him or the offspring become stray shrimp.
We've made a post on our website, we also apologise to our customers about this name mixed up.
On the other hand, we have taken his requests seriously by removing the name Thunder and Lightning off our listings, not sure why is he still whining about them now. It has been 3 years gone by and only after the Dortmund competition, at beginning of this month, this problem started to happen. May be because he only walked away with 1 gold and 3 bronze where he signed up for all the categories ? Were the results not as expected ? The famous bloodline didn't get to win 1st nor 2nd place in fancy tiger's categories ? Or is he seeing us as a big threat to his golden/ pumpkin line - 3rd place (500euros he wanted for each :p) where we sell our own bred in the UK for much less....Hmm.. who knows. Too many things to think off, but...
Life is too short, just enjoy the hobby folks !
