  • Comment: Shipping takes a while, but its overnight when it does ship. All of my fish are doing fantastic except my clown killifish. They have been dying off one by one and I'm not sure why. I can't point the finger anywhere yet, but I have ordered more, and we will see how they do.

  • Comment: With the exception of one of the CPD's that arrived extremely skinny all the fish came in excellent condition. It took about 6 hours for the Diamondhead Neons to color up but they look good after the the 1st several days. The Zebra Otocinclus are incredibly beautiful and began feeding on the tank algae in a matter of just a few hours as have the Reticulated Loaches. I'm looking forward to adding more Otos when they become available...

  • Comment: Never ordered fish online before. My False Julii Corydoras arrived on time and well packaged. They all (8) were individually bagged with a heat pack in the box. They are acclimating well to my aquarium and thriving! They are beautiful little cory cats. Update: The False Julii are still doing well. They are eating and really cleaning the bottom of my aquarium. They have a great personality.

  • Comment: All of the Cenepa came small, thin and one with a slightly concaved belly. And obviously it did not survive after a few days. This same problem happened a few weeks before with my purchase of Dwarf chain loaches. This goes against the reason I bought fish from here because they advertised that they’d fatten the fish up before shipping them out, ensuring optimal survivability. Obviously a starved, weak, and stressed from shipping into a new environment is a death sentence to any fish. Since this has happened to one of their most expensive fish I can only assume the quality control has deteriorated drastically. Sad to say that I won’t be ordering any fish from here again and I highly discourage everyone from buying nano fish on this website unless you want to take a chance of receiving a dying fish that has been starved for who know how long

  • Comment: My gosh they were all small (not a bad thing) I have been in the hobby since the 1970's & remember fish were never sold at such tiny sizes. But, the industry has changed and it's typical in many local & online stores. The grow out will be awesome to see I have NO complaints about the fish as all appear healthy, arrived as promised and the interior was still warm due to the heat packs. Thanks for being in business & I am a customer for life!

  • Comment: All 15 fish arrived alive! I was worried to order cardinal tetras because I’ve known them to be sensitive to transport, but they are all swimming around. One of the two peacock gudgeons I ordered is not looking very good, at the bottom not moving, but I’m going to give it a couple hours. The pigmy cory cats are all doing great! Thank you!

  • Comment: Ordered 6 juvenile Electric Blue Acara and 6 yo yo loach. All fish came alive and healthy. Commented “ hoping for atleast 1 female EBA, “ only been in tank now for literally a week. And I got a clutch of eggs on a rock being guarded. Happy Fish tank and chill already. Waiting to see the outcome of the other 4 that are smaller in size, they will be moved soon. The YoYo Loaches have decimated 3/4 of my snail issue in planted Angel tank already, couldn’t be any happier. Ordering was easy, shipping was great, heat packs ensured healthy live fish during cold weather in the Pa. Thank you all at Dans.

Each fish individually double bagged with clear labels printed on them, no guessing who's who. Heat pack never lost any heat, felt like they just put it in. Extremely impressed with everything so far.

My husband taught me how to care for his fish before he passed 2 yrs ago. Lol he told me in about 2 years our old fish will start to die, go to aquariumcoop app & use who he recommends! Thank you Dan! This will be a fish year with-150, 75, 50, 30 & 10 gallon aquariums to restock:( Last week our very large 11 year old Angel fish died:(

  • Comment: Everyone arrived in good shape. All doing very well the 1st few days. The shrimp have already begun to feed on the tank algae. The Platinum Rummynose Tetras colored up and joined the school within hours and the Reticulated Hillstream Loach wasted no time looking for algae on the tank glass, plants and rocks. I was initially concerned with the size of the Chile Rasbora. Almost the size of most fish fry. However, they quickly sought refuge in some floating plants and are schooling with the other Chile and Strawberry Rasbora that have been in the tank for about 8-10 months.

  • Comment: All 17 Platinum Rummynose arrived alive and good looking. After acclimating and adding to the tank, 1 seems to be listless and weak. The rest seem very healthy and happy. I'll keep an eye on the 1 possible dud, but I'm otherwise pleased with the fish. This makes 30 total Platinum Rummynose I've received from Dan's Fish, so even if the 1 does not make it, 29 out of 30 isn't bad! So I'd give a 4.83333/5 rating. We can round that to 5.

  • Comment: Spectacular process for shipping resulting in the delivery of fish that are in prime condition. Dan's also seems to source only from quality suppliers so the livestock is almost always premium. Indeed, all of the fish I received were wonderful.... with one exception. The Angelfish had badly damaged pectoral, caudal and anal fins. It appeared to have been badly bullied. It's a beautiful fish, but I don't know that it will make it with badly shredded fins. So four stars because of this one unique issue. The shop deserves five stars. Wonderful in every way.

  • Comment: Dansfish rocks when it comes to shipping! I've never had fish arrive so carefully packed and it makes all the difference in the cold and with the various carriers maligned with delays. Another thing that Dansfish rocks is the quality of the fish they sell. All of my order, except for one blueberry snail, arrived looking healthy and strong. 24 hours later all are settling in well and seem to be adjusting just fine. I got Chili Rasbora, who seem to be notoriously delicate. While most of the 14 that came are still hiding, 6 were already out cruising their new home. That's already 100% better than the previous vendor I was using. Obviously, I highly recommend Dansfish!

  • Comment: I recently purchased a pair of Apistogramma Borelli Opal from Dan's Fish, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The fish arrived in perfect condition, thanks to the excellent packaging. Both the male and female were in excellent health, with vibrant colors and flawless fins. The female was a bit smaller than I expected, but that's not a problem at all. They acclimated to my planted tank quickly and showed no signs of stress. I was initially skeptical about ordering fish online, but Dan's Fish exceeded my expectations. I will definitely be purchasing from them again!

  • Comment: Dan’s Fish is always a pleasure to work with. Fish are always healthy and arrive in excellent condition. Temps were around zero here, but the fish were warm and cozy in the box with plenty of juice left in the heat packs

  • Comment: Fish came in hale and hearty. UPS gave me a scare when I got an Email stating delivery would be pushed back till Monday (this was on a Friday). Fortunately I got a 2nd Email a few hours later stating fish would be delivered on Friday. They would not have survived over the weekend due to the intense cold weather. Packing was , as always, superb. Now looking for a herd of Barbs or Tetra's for a 20 high.

  • Comment: 10 happy, healthy fish arrived on my doorstep yesterday. All of them are beautiful representatives of their species. It's like magic! I am very glad to pay a little extra for the knowledge that the animals I buy will have been treated with care.

  • Comment: The fish arrived healthy, the box was very well insulated and secure the heating pad was still warm. I acclimate them to my aquarium the cories are very active so far so good. I also got a hillstream loaches, a baby and it disappeared into the plants it’s small so very hard to find… looking forward to seeing it sometime. Great healthy fish, I’ll be spending more $ at Dans soon

  • Comment: Good lord which out of the 8 orders over 7 months, and two very different address locations, containing 155 aquatic critters do I do a review? I've only had one dead on arrival, which was a halfbeak which wasn't surprising to me with my first order. I've had maybe 3 max neons out of 30+ over 3 orders that where a little mangled I thought 'i'll need to keep an eye on that one's Very well cared for fish, shrimps and snails as a life long and now middle aged aquarist. That worked for a time in my late teens early 20s in a box pet chain store that had fish and other live stock. An incredibly professional and exemplary run company. I can't say enough good things especially when my alternates where I live and nearby while stocking up are only the box pet food stores with an aquarium section. The fish often do come a little on the small side and for good reason they ship so much better as I learned transporting my thriving orange shrimp colony over 3 days and 950 miles. The little ones made it the older ones didn't. Hope to make it up to the facility one day! Thanks Dan and team. You all rock!

  • Comment: This was my first time purchasing fish from here and it was an excellent experience. While I waited for my fish to arrive, I asked a couple questions regarding the fish I was getting to ensure I was properly prepared. They always answered promptly and were extremely helpful! When the fish arrived, each fish was in its own bag. All of them arrived in excellent condition with no signs of health issues and this was not a small order (18 fish and 4 amano shrimp). I currently have them in quarantine and cannot wait to add them all to my main tank. I will definitely be ordering from here again!

  • Comment: I have spent money on shrimp catfish snails all different type of fish online and dans fish is the best one! Once they ship the box it comes the very next day! The way they wrap the fish is prefect!! Every fish is in their own bag and the water isn’t dirt at all! All my fish were active and seem happy. Very impressed and pleased! Will definitely be ordering from Him and him only! :) thank you Dan for doing prefect business!

  • Comment: i was impressed with the shipping procedure and great health of my two rams and a golden eye dwarf cichlid m/f pair. whom already have produced fry by the way. last time i purchased fish from different online vendor the fish arrived not nearly as well packed and they came infected with ick. I had no such problem with dans fish. Dans product is top notch imo.

  • Comment: All of the fish in this order arrived in great shape and acclimated quickly. The Albino Rummynose took a few extra hours to settle in. We lost one of Rummynose during the 2nd week but all the others are have acclimated very well. The Long Fin Cherry Barbs are just beautiful....

  • Comment: Another perfect order received from Dan's. The Angelfish arrived healthy and colorful (not faded) They took right away to my water quality. I still enjoy the very first order of 10 Bleeding Heart Tetra 'Rio Nanay' from Dan's. They are of astonishing quality, so large and beautiful.

  • Comment: Ordering some (for me) expensive fish in the dead of winter probably wasn't my brightest idea, but all 10 of the fish I ordered arrived alive and warm (73F), despite sub-freezing temps outside. All appear very healthy--one female apisto was a little thinner than the others, but she's very active and picking at algae and plants, so clearly she's doing alright. As always, very well-packed, with no danger of the fish getting jostled too badly. The individual packing of each fish is always a great touch too.

  • Comment: The fish are absolutely beautiful. I was impressed by the care taken to package them. The bags were completely sealed and there were heaters in the box. The fish came alive and they seem to be thriving. I bought 3 angels, 2 rainbows, 1 blue acara, 1 bristle nose pleco, and 4 cherry barbs. I would recommend dansfish to other buyers.

  • Comment: Ordered 5 CPDs and just received them - all healthy and perky. Given that I live in Flagstaff AZ and they shipped from WY, they went through a lot of cold weather to get here - however the included warmer pack in the shipping box kept them in the right zone which made for acclimating them to the tank easier. This is my 2nd order from Dan's in the last year and each time, everything has been great.

  • Comment: I really appreciate the transparency with the shipping as well when there is unsafe weather to ship. All eleven fish arrived in excellent condition. Everyone was alive and healthy. The heat pack was plenty warm and I love how each fish is individually packaged! The color on the Celestial Pearl Danios are vibrant and they're thriving. The Blue Phantom Pleco is absolutely gorgeous and I can't wait to see it grow! Definitely will order again!

Heat packs were just right; 76.5 in the box upon delivery despite upper 30s in my area. Excellent communication and care for the fish when shipping the order was delayed due to UPS backlog. Couldn't be happier!
