Comment: I bought 18 fish in total. Each fish came individually double bagged in a Styrofoam box with chemical heaters. All fish are currently in a pre-cycled 20 gallon quarantine tank. In about 12 hours all are very active and eating. No signs of parasites or disease. Very healthy. Would definitely buy from Dans again and would recommend.

Comment: This little guy arrived promptly and well a couple of days ago. He's tiny, and my tank has lots of hiding spots, so I hadn't seen him since he moved in. However! I spotted my little spotted fellow noshing on a piece of wood last night. He stayed there for a moment and let me take his picture before scuttling away. My overall experience with Dan's Fish has been 5 star!

Comment: i don't know how they do it but the crew at dans fish stand head and shoulders above other online retailers. i have always received healthy, partially grown fish from dans. dans wasn't the first place i tried and i have had many bad experiences with other places..ie dead arrivals, stressed, malnourished baby fish that don't survive acclimation etc. i read a lot about the sensitivity of these fish and how they stress during shipping so i figured i would try to find them at a local fish store. the first store i found them in was a two hour drive. i got 6 and drip acclimated them into a community tank. i lost 1 or two a day for 4 days until all were gone, no other tank mates were affected. i found another place and bought 10, in the quarantine tank i noticed they all had fin and tail rot and were already an inch and a half! these fish resembled and acted like green fire tetras without the red stripe, very boisterous fish with a different body shape. none of them made it through quarantine. bummed out i decided to give up on these fish and did for awhile but that wild hair grew back and i decided to give it one more try but this time with dans. all 10 arrived alive and active, not colored up yet but that is to be expected. they are drip acclimating right now but i expect total success this time. don't waste time ,money or energy anywhere else, these guys get it right every time.

Comment: Excellent service and fish. Speaking with a friend who has years of experience in the hobby, who has been looking for exclamation point rasboras. He said you can order them other places and maybe get the right species, but when you are dealing with a place like Dan’s you KNOW you will get what you ordered!!
Thanks to all the crew at Dan’s for going the extra mile!!

Comment: I just have to say...buying these fish was one of the best decisions I’ve made! From the moment I released them into the tank, the colors popped. Every fin shimmered like living art, it’s like having a moving painting right in my living room.
They adapted instantly, exploring every inch of their new home like they owned it. The energy they bring completely transforms the space, calm, vibrant, and mesmerizing all at once.
You can tell they’re healthy, well-cared for, and top quality. Not a single dull scale or stressed swimmer ..just perfection.
Comment: Once again all new finned friends arrived in perfect condition! If NASA was this successful we'd be on Mars already! The pre-shipping preparation involved is incredible and consistent and I now have a very streamlined process for on-boarding newcomers.
I do have one possibly dumb question: Each bag came with a small dark/black pellet with the fish for the first time. What is that?

I plan on ordering a lot more in the following weeks because of the great quality. The cherry shrimp are red and healthy as well.

Comment: I recently placed an order with Dan’s Fish and couldn't be happier with the experience. I purchased a variety of fish, including:
True Siamese Algae Eater
Platinum Rummynose Tetras (15)
Orange Venezuelan Cories (10)
Marbled Hatchetfish 'Rio Nanay' (12)
Santa Maria Endler Trio
Apisto agassizii 'Fire Red'
L519 Honeycomb Bushynose Pleco 'Rio Itenez'
Assorted Aquarium Fish
Every single fish arrived quickly, healthy, active, and absolutely beautiful. The packaging was professional and clearly done with care, and all the fish were thriving right out of the bag.
I was especially curious about the Platinum Rummynose Tetras—at a higher price point, I wasn’t sure if they’d be noticeably different from the regular variety. But wow, they’re stunning—easily among the most beautiful fish I’ve ever owned. Their shimmering, silvery sheen adds a whole new dimension to my tank.
Overall, I’m incredibly impressed. Dan’s Fish clearly prioritizes quality, health, and customer satisfaction. I’ll absolutely be ordering again. Highly recommend!

Comment: Healthy fish that arrived in good shape and all are still doing well, over three weeks later. As usual, when there is an issue, Dan's Fish makes it right without hesitation: one of the longfin super red bristlenose plecos I ordered was not in fact long fin (it was a short fin super red). I was immediately given a full refund when I reported this. You can't beat Dan's for the combination of fish quality and customer care.

Comment: Dan's always has beautiful, healthy fish. Quick shipping where all the fish are individually bagged. By individually I mean, if you ordered 35 neon tetras, you'd get 35 individually bagged neon tetras! That may not seem like much but I believe it keeps the fish less stressed and if one were to die in transit, the rest won't be swimming in the rotting soup.
It's attention to details like that that keep me coming back!

Comment: I’m always very happy with the quality of fish I receive from Dan’s. I’ve ordered from several other vendors in search of a strong, healthy chili rasbora school, but none have matched Dan’s quality. From other sellers, I’ve received mixed or weak schools — sometimes with fish arriving dead on arrival — but every time I order from Dan’s, I’m confident the fish will arrive healthy and thrive.
This latest batch was no exception — the chilis looked mature, vibrant, and beautifully maintained. Absolutely perfect. Thank you!

Comment: Five stars plus! I've never had a sick or dead fish delivered from Dan's Fish--the communication w/seller has ALWAYS been extraordinary. Today I was so worried because UPS informed me that an "exception" had occurred; Dan's Fish looked into it and it turns out to have been a delay in the overnight flight. I was reassured my fish would be healthy in a facility overnight (I know this to be true & was reassured that a package hadn't been squished). Guess what? The fish made another flight and arrived BEFORE expected time of noon today. All are in quarantine right now looking lively and healthy. The corys are the cutest! The colors on the fish tell me they've been cared for--they're popping colors even in the young female guppy--and they're lively, active, and pretty. I'm not kidding when I say I'll never order online fish from anyplace but here!

Their water temp was at 71.3° F which i was able to check in one of the small bags that was included to take up space. Great packaging guys!!! I followed their instructions and released the fish into their new quarantine tank. I did take the time and acclimated the shrimp for about an hour as i know they can be a little more sensitive. Its been 4 days and everyone is still looking really good.

Comment: By far the healthiest fish I have ever purchased. In the past I’ve tried to stock chili rasboras a few times that I picked up from local shops as well as ordered from another site. Out of about 20, only 2 survived. A little over a month ago, I figured I would try one more time and ordered 10 chilis from dans fish. I was a little worried I’d be wasting more money especially since dans is a little more expensive then other places…but I was very pleased when they arrived. They were all so healthy looking and a week later seemed to be thriving, so, I ordered 10 more!! They ALL survived!! I am so happy with the entire process from dans and highly recommend ordering from them.

Comment: This is my 1st time getting any sort of gourami, and these guys have been on my wishlist for a few years now. I finally had a set-up that I thought they would enjoy, and I was right! All 10 sparkling gouramis arrived alive and well, if not a little angry, haha. After the first couple minutes getting over the stress of being added to their new home, the sparkling gouramis quickly started exploring their new tank and were pleased with it, apparently. I've already heard them croaking several times, and they're so friendly they come right to my hand anytime I'm feeding or maintaining the tank. They are with my 17 new chilis and 24 phoenix rasboras that I got from Dan's a couple of months ago. Everyone is coexisting well and a joy to watch!
Comment: I think I understand now why people love these fish. My 17 new chilis are super active, friendly, and colored up within minutes of adding them to my fully planted tank. I did lose one in shipping, which is a first from Dan's Fish for me, but considering everyone else in the shipment looked extremely healthy, I think it was just one of those things (I could have contacted Dan's for the DOA and chose not to, but I know their customer service is great). Also it got way warmer than it was supposed to in Upstate NY that day, which might have been a contributing factor; the dead fish was toward the outside perimeter of the box. Overall I am super pleased! It's been over 2 weeks and everyone looks amazing and happy.

Comment: It was delivered alive and well! Definitely stressed but after a day in the tank with no light it's out and about with full color. Thank you so much. This is my 2nd successful order and I'll definitely order again.

Comment: Wish I could give a 10 star rating. I’ve been a fan of Dans fish for years but never ordered and now that I did this will be the only place I buy fish from for now on. The golden dwarf barbs are doing great along with the robust shrimp. Very healthy. Time to start convincing my wife to make more orders soon.

Comment: Ordered 6 panda garra and 2 rainbow goby and they all came individually packaged in the box (8 bags). They were active and looked healthy (though their color was washed out due to stress).
I acclimated them and eventually was able to put them in the tank and they very quickly got used to their new environment and became active and colorful again.
I think it's safe to say that you're paying for healthy fish.

Comment: Thank you again for some amazing fish. They are thriving since Tuesday. I'm really amazed with the health and hardiness of all your fish. I can tell you care about their health before selling to customers. I'll be back for some more in a 2-3 weeks after I get some more cycling in my tank. Thanks again!

Comment: Every fish was in excellent health, one female livebearer delivered 6 perfectly healthy fry during shipping with no problems. I have always had excellent service and healthy fish from Dan’s. Well worth the cost.

Comment: My Cory has been very busy rushing around cleaning the tank for the last two weeks he takes breaks then is right back to cleaning. I named it Dyson.

Comment: All of my green neons are doing well over the last two weeks. They are very hardy peaceful fish that just look beautiful and try to stay out of the bigger fishes way… I just love them. I put one of them in a separate tank as I’ve had this one survivor for over a month of a school of eight neon tetras I got from a LFS (can’t seem to get the ones I get from there to survive longer than a week) they have been hanging out together ever since. It’s sweet that he has a little buddy to hang out with now.

Comment: My Kuhlis are doing well two weeks later. I ordered them for snail control then read some reviews that they actually don’t eat snails… lol.. but I have been observing them cleaning the areas at the bottom of my plants they’re cool little guys.
I also ordered a Dwarf Gourami. I named him Piggy because he literally never stops eating. He can be a bully sometimes at feeding time making sure he gets that sinking bug bite before the other guys. I’m feeding less now as I’m afraid he’ll gorge himself to death…lol. He is a beautiful fun fish to watch with a lot of character. I also have a Dumbo Betta who chases him away from his area of the tank but then I observe them sleeping together at night. Too cute!

Comment: I will never purchase fish online from anywhere else but Dan's Fish. Perfect packaging, each fish in an individual bag and marked what kind. Extra water bags included to further pad the foam box and keep temps safe. ALL fish and snails I've gotten from here are healthy and beautiful. Sailfin platy pair from my last order were gorgeous, lively, young, and are happily acclimated in the permanent tank too. Adding to tetra colonies soon and getting some corys. I absolutely trust this site and am excited for my new healthy fish instead of worried about them--next day shipping is the way to go! Thank you so much.

Comment: Everything arrived alive and as described. The shipping was exactly one day, Monday to Tuesday. I went with Dan's Fish for the virus free guorami and added a couple of colors of neocardinia for existing colonies. All are in their new homes and seem to be doing well. I would definitely buy from here again.
