  • Comment: I am a 100% satisfied customer. First off I ordered six fish and they shipped seven. Seventh was labeled extra. I ordered the fish on Thursday they shipped on Monday , and arrived at 1200noon on Tuesday. Very quick if you ask me. They were expertly packed. Each fish had their own bag, which was double bagged. The container had two heat packs. Most importantly my fish were all very healthy, look beautiful, and they were even eating their dinner later in the day. Awesome experience thanks so much!

  • Comment: You know, you can tell Dan really take cares and is passionate about the hobby. My Kali Tawas came in healthy and ready to gobble up some blood worms. Their colors are starting to pop as they get settled. I'm definitely happy.

  • Comment: Wow! What a quick turn around. I ordered 6 fish, each in its own sealed bag in an insulated box. Temp was still 76 when I opened the box. Each fish was active and spryly moving around. No sluggishness as expected. I will definitely be using Dan's Fish again. Thank you

  • Comment: Yes I received my order. They all made it safely. I didn't realize the one fish was going to be so tiny. I was almost scared to put it in my 55 gal tank with the other 🐠. I'm overall happy with this shipment, thank you very much.

  • Comment: Shipping method was amazing. The tiny Odontocharacidium aphanes- "Hummingbird tetra" arrived in excellent shape. They are my new favorite fish. Unique little creatures darting about in my heavily planted tank. Drip acclimated, they ate baby brine shrimp within 10 minutes of being released into their new home. Thank you Dan's fish, ** first attempt at a youtube vid, don't judge, ;)

They were packed perfectly with heat packs in Styrofoam. All look super healthy and less than an hour after going in the tank, they have their stripes showing and even took food. Will definitely order from this site again, thanks for your amazing service

  • Comment: All fish from my order made it in perfect condition, no DOA or physical damage. It's been three days now and everyone is out and about, and eating. This is my second time ordering from Dan, my first order also went perfectly. Both orders were solely stiphodon gobies. First batch has been in quarantine for about 2 weeks now, no deaths, no sickness--just fat bellies and active fish. Second batch looks just as good. I see no signs of internal parasites, which is always a concern with wild-caught scavengers. 5/5, I'll be back again! Update 1/30/22: All 15 gobies from both orders are through quarantine and into my 110G hillstream aquarium. No losses, everyone is fat and happy. Colored up and doing things gobies should be doing.

  • Comment: All the stiphodon atropurpureos arrived in great condition. My water is hard, so I did a 6 hour drip acclimation on them (a bit excessive), and everyone did fine. Three days later, all are looking great and colored up. Eating well for me on algae wafers and frozen baby brine.

  • Comment: If I could give them a 10, I would do it. This has been the best online fish purchase experience I've ever had in my 1 year in the hobby. I ordered and received a beautiful 4+ inch Red Shoulder Severum that arrived healthy, active, and full of coloration. Unlike other online retailers, Dan's Fish kept me informed every step of the way which is rare in this hobby unfortunately. The shipping & packaging was top notch and like nothing I've seen before. The double bags were folded and secure. No leaks like you get with rubber bands. They even included two temp pouch's and a heat pad. They quarantine, medicate, and acclimate prior to sending instead of sending sick fish and blaming the buyers for not quarantining the fish like the other sub par retailers who shall remain nameless. Here's the kicker, they are so confident in the fish they sell that they are willing to refund shipping if something goes wrong and NO ONE does that. Thanks Dan

  • Comment: All fish came in great condition, males were even showing color after transport. Packaging was top notch with styrofoam and a heat pack. My favorite part was the individual packages of fish so as not to foul the water if one didn’t make the trip. I was informed what was happening throughout the whole process via email which was awesome. Definitely a great choice and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dan’s Fish to anyone.

  • Comment: Easily the best experience I’ve had with an online fish retailer. I purchased a spotted Congo puffer from Dan and she came in super fat and happy. She was a lot less stressed than other fish I’ve bought online (from other retailers) and I was able to feed her within a hour of putting her in the tank. I was very impressed with the packaging…I’m assuming that had a big part to do with her not being so stressed. As far as contacting Dan’s fish goes, he is transparent and responds to emails very quickly. I will be doing business with him again and I recommend others to strongly consider purchasing from him as well. Thank you, Dan!

It was 12 degrees here in Toledo Ohio this morning and when the fish came in the water in the bag was only 67 degrees. Within minutes after acclimation, all of the fish were swimming around and looked super healthy. I will be buying from Dan's fish again!

  • Comment: Ordering fish during winter was a scary thought but when a rare fish you want is available I had to take the chance and I’m glad I did with Dans Fish. They have been proactively communicating with me on everything throughout and I can’t say enough how good their customer service is and appreciated. My fish arrived this morning overnight, nicely double bagged, insulated with newspaper and heat packed. It’s 38 degrees here in Seattle and was relieved to feel the inside of the box was nice and warm and my fishy friends still perky and alive. I will be confidently ordering again from them from this great first experience. Thank you Dans Fish!

  • Comment: I was very nervous as I had never ordered from Dan’s Fish and have had really bad experiences ordering online before so I usually only buy local. This was an amazing experience as they came in beautifully packed and heat packs were really warm and doing their job. The Gold Roselines are perfect and eating already and loving the 240 gallon. I would recommend them and will buy with confidence from them again. Thank you Dan’s Fish for restoring my faith in ordering aquatics online. You made my Christmas so much better.

They are acclimating to the tank conditions and tank mates. They seem to be a little nervous, So I turned the lights down to help them chillax. The colors on the fish are fantastic!!

After several attempts and hundreds of dollars I have managed to create a small colony. I ordered these fish to add to the genetics and they arrived as fat and sassy as any of my current stock.

  • Comment: Ordering from Dan and his team has been a wonderful experience. I've just received my second order and the process was personal yet very consistent. The customer service is stellar from start to finish and the care they have for the fish and the shipping experience is evident. Dan even took the time to message me on shipping day to double check if I would be okay with males only or if I planned to breed. Gave me some other options incase not, and still managed to get everything packed and shipped per the original schedule. Both orders have arrived on time, by 12pm Next Day, within an hour of each other which made it easier to plan around. All arrived alive and of the two orders/4 species/a total of 31 fish, 30 are alive and thriving with no ailments presenting. Amazing odds when shipping fish. I look forward to the breeding projects to come and many more orders from Dan's Fish. Most definitely worth it if you are looking for a quality experience and fish!

  • Comment: Absolutely no words for how awesome these little guys are!! They arrived spastic, fat and sassy with no losses. They’re all schooling in my QT as I write this! Dan’s customer service is wonderful and truly unparalleled. He truly thinks of his customers, and that makes the purchasing process enjoyable and smooth. I wouldn’t hesitate to order from him again!

  • Comment: Dan knows his craft. Saw a you tube video of his fish room. He knows his fish. Bought 6 Celestial Perl Danios. They came in induvial bags in an insulated box with a heat pack. They arrived in perfect shape. Put them in a planted quarantine tank. They are full color next day and I believe mating. Not to familiar with CPD's but it don't look like fighting.

  • Comment: This was my first experience buying from Dan's fish and was thoroughly impressed. Communication prior to shipping was excellent and all the fish arrived on time and in excellent health. The care that went into packaging each specimen was second to none and this was by far one of my best experiences buying fish online. All of them ate within hours of being transitioned to my tank and have been stable since. I will certainly be back!

  • Comment: Placed an order with DAN'S FISH for an L047 Pleco on a Tuesday night. The following day my fish shipped via Next Day Air. Fish arrived on schedule. Combined cost and shipping rate was FAR SUPERIOR to any other local or online dealer I have found. Product was packaged in a nifty little styrofoam box, which was encased within the shipping box. All excess space was filled with an additional sealed bag of water. This has been my first experience purchasing fish online in nearly two years, due to several horrible experiences with other dealers. The entire ordering experience was done as flawlessly as possible, with the least possible stress to the fish (and myself). This experience has restored my faith in shopping outside of my LFS. I highly recommend this dealer! -Alex

  • Comment: Just another superb interaction. Dans product and standards are far better than anyone else in the industry! Listen I have ordered thousands of dollars in fish and honestly there aren’t retailers out there with this much commitment to the fish or the customer. These fish were no disappointment they are a joy to watch in my 60 gallon community tank. Kudos Dan

  • Comment: Most of the fish came in strong fat and healthy like usual. A few of the licorice gourami’s where rather stressed. Placed them in a quarantine with some other grow out fish with lots of cover. Unfortunately a few didn’t make the transition. Will continue to strengthen the remaining survivors before moving them to a more permanent home. Update: Dan stands behind his word and product. Although the licorice gourami species did not do well in my environment he provided superb customer service through the process. Truly the best.

  • Comment: I am so happy with my purchase of Electric Blue Acaras. Communication with Dan's Fish was excellent and I knew exactly when they were being shipped and when to expect them. They look healthy and wonderful and were lively from the get go. They are now happily exploring their new home. I will definitely be buying from Dan's Fish again and will recommend others do so as well.

  • Comment: As always, I am absolutely thrilled with my latest order from Dan! Excellent communication, fast shipping, extremely well packaged and arrived safe and sound. Fish were individually double bagged and packed snugly into a styrofoam lined box w a heat pack. I ordered 11 fish of three different species- each and every one came in bright, healthy, absolutely beautiful. I will continue to shop w Dan and thoroughly recommend others to do the same if they want strong, healthy, gorgeous specimens , shipped with the utmost care. You’ll be glad you did! Bunny Viper

  • Comment: This was my second order from Dan's Fish. A weather event and general UPS shenanigans prevented the order from arriving exactly as planned, and this panicky fishkeeper reached out to Dan who very kindly provided emotional support and explained that the fish were packed with plenty of wiggle room in the shipping window. The box was 77 degrees F. upon receipt later in the day when the package magically appeared on my doorstep, and all of the fish are healthy, happy and eating well! The P. luminatus are even more beautiful than the pictures. Dan has shipping down to a science! I will not hesitate to purchase again.

  • Comment: Beautifully packed, healthy fish. They are all readily accepting a variety of prepared and frozen foods. I expected some skittishness when walking past my quarantine tanks, but they are more interested in informing me that it is always dinner time. The Red Beckfordi pencilfish are a pleasant surprise! They color up every time food is added to the tank, and their displays are impressive and peaceful. Lots of personality packed in a compact body. My next order has already been made. Knowing the fish have been quarantined by Dan and medicated when necessary helps me feel confident that I will succeed with new to me species. And the Customer Service cannot be beat.
