I've ordered lots of equipment and stuff from TaoBao, but not livestock... under the controlled items list, it seems importation of livestock like fishes and shrimp would need a permit by AVA:

Not sure how the rules pertain to orders by mail though... because i know you can personally bring a certain quantity them in with check-in luggage on an airplane without a permit, with limitations on package volume.
I guess when you place an order with the TaoBao agent, they'll probably inform you if the livestock order is possible or needs a permit, or you get a call from customs or AVA when the package arrives.![]()
