Comment: I ordered 8 orange shrimp, all arrived healthy and calm in their little baggies. They had a bit of java moss in with them to keep them relaxed. I took a couple hours drip acclimating before adding them to my tank and they buzzed around for a while, but settled right in within a few hours and are now colored up nicely and right at home. :)

Comment: I'm so glad I gave Dan's fish another try.
The Leopard Ctenopoma are honestly an underrated fish. Their spotting is beautiful, their feeding behaviors are fascinating, and the "dead leaf" vertical swim they do is hilarious. They’re smart fish, verging on being wet pets with how interactive they are. I have them in an office tank, and they always come over to see what I’m doing. The tank is heavily planted, which seems to suit them perfectly.
I also got an Apisto cacatuoides 'Double Red' female. She’s settled in great and is just starting to color up, showing some vibrant red.

Comment: 100% alive arrival. Fish were super active and lively. This is the VERY first time I've ordered fish, online, that each fish were individually sealed within their own air sealed packet (printed on bag is the species) and neatly packed within the box supporting each other like a glove. Now I'm not a fish, but I can only imagine how stressful being shipped in a dark box would be...then I imagine how it would be being crammed in a bag with 8 other me's bumping in to each other. I feel like Dan truly loves this business (and the fish) by providing the least traumatic way to ship them...safely tucked in their own little sealed pouch! I'm really blown away and didn't realize a company did this. Every other place I've ordered from slaps them all in one bag and I usually end up with casualties.
Yeah, I know this is long, but I'm that impressed Lol. I now can't wait to place another order...I know where I'm getting my lovely aqua friends from now on! Thanks Dan! Side note: my son saw the box and thought I ordered him special fish (his name is Dan too haha)

Comment: I have ordered five times, now, since I first discovered Dan's Fish.
An incredible array of fish to choose from. I've ordered very rare fish from Dan's.
Each time, they have arrived on time, in excellent health, and actually vibrant. The single package for each fish is a very easy way to introduce them into my different tanks. And, seriously, I allowed them to slip from the bag into the aquarium, after acclimatization, without fear that Dan's water in the bags would introduce a disease.
All of them were introduced successfully, and all of them are healthy and breeding.
I'm highly satisfied. And will continue to order as the opportunity presents itself.

Comment: All livestock arrived quickly and healthy. They all look great. The fish acclimated well and are swimming around happily. I tried drip acclimating shrimp over 2 hours. Unfortunately our water values must have been too different. None survived. But I probably should have just bought shrimp locally. It’s just I can’t find orange Amano shrimp near by.

Seller Reply: Hello Pug Feathers, I'm sorry to hear the Gold Amano Shrimp did not do well for you. We've refunded you for the cost of the shrimp and the shipping associated with them. If I may venture a suggestion, I'd recommend that these shrimp not be drip acclimated, but simply be added directly to the tank once temps have equalized as described in the box insert. If you are willing to give that a try, I'd be happy to send you some free Gold Amanos on your next order if you would like. - Dan

Comment: I wish I could post photos! My purchase was a major success, my only regret is not getting more Sulawesi starry nights!
I ordered celestial danios to increase my school, orange and black Venezuelan Cory’s (they are the cutest goofballs and I love them)
And Sulawesi starry nights. They arrived in great shape and adjusted perfectly. I did lose 1 Sulawesi within 48 hrs, but I’m unclear why, because the other 3 are doing great and I belive one already molted at day 3. I’m already thinking about ordering more Sulawesi’s! I couldn’t be happier with this seller, he also worked with me on shipment days to accommodate my wacky nurse schedule. I plan on purchasing from this seller in the future for my Cory’s, as my lfs I believe they just aren’t as healthy. My crew is happy and eating well, and my Venezuelans get along great with my pandas. A very happy customer here.. but grieving the early loss of one of my starry nights 💔 tho I do not blame this on the seller by any means, maybe just a fluke. The others are happy and adjusted.

Comment: I ordered 2 types of guppies and some platys. Some of the turquoise guppies had clamped fins and were not swimming well. I notified Dan's Fish and sent some pictures. I got a response 1 hour and 45 minutes later stating they had noticed some guppies with clamped fins and the guppies were subsequently diagnosed by their vet with tapeworm. I was told what medication they were using and fortunately, I had some on hand. I am sad some of the fish arrived ill - I had hoped for better. I am very happy that I got a quick response from Dan's Fish giving me a diagnosis and treatment - I think this is fantastic and likely unusual in the aquarium trade. The healthy fish look good. The fish arrived on time and well packed. All the fish are in a quarantine tank and I am treating them with ParaCleanse and salt.

Sometimes, fish just don't show any obvious signs of a problem...even when they are examined in the lab before being listed for sale. I hope the treatment goes smoothly. If there is anything more we can do to help, please reach out. - Dan

Comment: I was stunned when first introduced to this website. The Lancaster fish Club ordered together paying the shipping for those of us who bought. When I got my fish, I was amazed at their little "hotel rooms" and, that each were still alive in their little "rooms" after several days! Every one of them are alive to this day as far as I know. In preparation for another order, I did a water change and filter change, There was no dead fish muck in this filter!! Just some plant fragments for sure. I believe what I bought has doubled in size in the past 5-6 months. I put in an order recently that is coming tomorrow:) No fear or trepidation within me now. I finally have healthy fish and a healthy tank and the money spent is worth every penny. Dan's fish are clearly healthy, and he knows what he is doing in order to get them this healthy! (I am so sad for the fish sold in places like Pet-smart.) Now to buy some plants from Dan's affiliate! I have no fear about this now either! You run a Healthy & Wonderful Business Dan!

The Chili's were more expensive, but I would have saved money in the long run by going here first. I think the single fish packages are a real help for sensitive fish like these arriving in good shape. I also got some orange shrimp. All arrived alive and are doing well. The color could have been better on some but there's enough of good color to enjoy watching.

Comment: Overall, the fish arrived alive and well, except for one little ember tetra that had an eye deformity and some body discoloration—not a disease from my experience as a fishkeeper, just deformities. Jonny addressed this promptly, as he always does; Jonny is awesome. Other than that one little ember tetra, all the other fish, including a bunch of pygmy corys, are perfect!
Comment: Best experience Ive had ordering on line got 12 rummy nose tetras and 1 siamese algae eater all in very good condition
Thanks Dan

Comment: I would give this 10 out of 5 stars. I opened the box, and all the embers were feisty and ready to get out of their bags. They are coloring up nicely and are quickly becoming my favorite nano fish. I think they are going to be the sassy redheads of my big community tank.

Comment: They are all doing well and thriving. The forktail rainbows are full breeding mode and I've actually have the first fry from them. The CPD are enjoying themselves and brightly colored. And the ottos are doing their thing eating algae and hiding for the most part though.

Comment: Again I’m so happy with these mini guarami’s so gentle with other fish and although the males fight some nothing big. All of them are still alive and look good in this heavy planted 21 gallon father fish style

Comment: I’m very disappointed with the shipping and customer service I’ve received so far.
My fish arrived alive but in bad shape. I don’t expect them to survive. They clearly went through hell in the shipping process, and unfortunately Dan’s Fish bears a lot of that responsibility. Per UPS: “All shipments of live animals must be clearly marked on opposing sides of the carton in bold block lettering a minimum of one inch in height stating: LIVE ANIMALS. The term animal may be replaced with the name of the specific live animal contained in the package.”
The box had no such label. It is fairly obvious why the labeling is important. Boxes with live animals are handled differently than, for example, screwdrivers. We’ve all seen UPS drivers throwing boxes. The same goes on at the sorting facilities. Imagine 20 small, delicate fish in those boxes.
Additionally, the delivery was delayed due to weather, which I understand is outside of Dans Fish’s control but when I asked Dan’s customer service if I would receive a refund for the $50 I paid in next day shipping (because this is guaranteed by UPS and refundable), I received a dry, unapologetic “We don't refund shipping on delays.”
Additionally, I placed my order last week Wednesday and Dan’s Fish did not ship until the following Monday. Due to the shipping issues, I did not receive the fish until the following Wednesday (a week later).
Timing matters for introducing fish and a speedier packaging may have very well avoided the inclement weather.
For $250+ I expect more and you should too. I cannot recommend Dans Fish.
Update: every single one of the 10 sparkling gouramis are either dead or dying. The ones that are alive are unable to lift themselves off the substrate and are lying there awaiting death. Half of the rainbow fish appear okay but the other half (5) are in a similar position. Out of 20 fish, 5 made it. Heartbreaking

Comment: Shipping delay by UPS meant the super blue Kerri tetras came a day late. Everyone was alive and seem to be doing well after getting acclimated to the tank. Temp was 82.5 degrees. Thank you as always!
