Comment: Both of these pairs are beautiful. They all arrived super healthy and ate BBS immediately after acclimating. The blue gularis female looked a bit beat up but she was healthy. The male is amazing. These gold shoulder apistogramma... usually the pictures represent the best colored fish in the best lighting. Either he sent me the stud in the photo or they all exhibit beautiful color. Even the female is strikingly colored.

Comment: I have ordered multiple fish from Dan’s Fish and they have all arrived healthy, and active. I’ve also ordered snails, which are thriving. I am more than happy to pay for overnight delivery for fish that are healthy and have been treated well. The care that goes in to Dan’s fish are important to me and make it worth ordering and not going to local pet stores. And even though it’s hard to wait after an order is placed, it’s great that they quarantine your order to make sure they’re healthy before shipping

Comment: Once again, Dan’s fish delivered as promised. My Blue Diamond Angel and 3 Orange Head Blue Rams arrived fat and sassy! The staff is amazing, allowing me to request a specific Blue Angel that has the Smokey look, that I saw in a recent video. My angel is currently quarantining with a Arulius Barb juvenile whose parents also came from Dan’s Fish. The extra cost is worth every penny.

Comment: Perfect! All 10 platinum Miyuki ricefish arrived in great shape and settled in immediately. They have continued to be happy and healthy, and eager feeders. They were breeding in less than three weeks of receiving them. They are truly stunning in an aquarium with a black background, with blazing white color that really pops. I'm not sure why this fish is more common in the hobby.

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: 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: 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

I'm just letting them rest, a while before I open the box... The fish were packed well, when I opened the box, after an hour or so to rest from their rough trip, all were good

Comment: Living in a major metro area, I’d assumed I had more local options for fish stores. Turns out, I really only have big chains near me. Which pretty much carry the same 25 or so kinds of fish. I had my heart set on an apistogramma cacatuoides, and ordering from Dan ended up being a terrific choice. Fast, safe shipping. Also, it’s nice to see his facilities on his YouTube channel - getting a peek at how dedicated he and his staff is.

You get what you pay for and I will gladly pay slightly more knowing that my fish have been humainly sourced and that if anything doesn't go as expected, that I will have no issues working with Dan's fish to make it right. There is no reason to order from anywhere else.

Comment: 2 months in and have not lost a single fish. They came packaged better than any company I’ve used. You get what you pay for! I’m a firm believer in that and it appears they are too!

Comment: Best shipping experience hands down, the package did show up an hour early so give yourself a little leeway when you’re waiting on your fish. Each fish individually packaged and very lively, a week after the fact and each fish is happy as can be colored up nicely, definitely will be ordering again, Dan and the team definitely have this process down pat, well done

Comment: This is my third order from Dan’s and once again my expectations have been exceeded. Ordered 17 fish and they were all professionally packaged and all arrived healthy. They all colored up within minutes of being released in the tank and the majority have already started eating. Thank you once again for these beautiful fish.

Comment: Wow I’m really impressed. I received an email stating when my corydoras would arrive. Then when I opened the box all 6 of them were individually packed. They were all healthy and they are in their new home. I really hope they thrive and live a long live.

Comment: Our two pea puffers arrived alive and healthy! As did our dwarf emerald danios! They are acclimating to their tanks right now. This is the first time that I have ordered fish online and it’s been a great experience!

Comment: This was my 2nd time ordering from Dan’s Fish and won’t be my last. I received all 10 fish alive and looking healthy. I’ve ordered fish online from 3 separate sellers now, Dan’s being the first time because he seemed reputable. I tried buying from another seller who I had heard of before (admittedly because the prices were a bit lower), and i learned my lesson. With the other seller, their responses via email were short and came across as annoyed. I paid for overnight shipping and received all alive in dirty looking water, not individually packaged and unmarked as to what species of fish was in what bag. 5 of 6 of the fish of the same species died within the first two days and 1 left alive was a neon tetra, which isn’t what I paid for. From what I’ve seen, Dan himself explains why his fish are a bit more than some other sellers out there and now I know (or learned for myself) why that is: you truly get what you pay for. I had some questions on this recent order about the pseudomugil species, and again Jonny helped answer them promptly. Lastly, due to my profession, my work hours leave me with one weekday off. And (again), Dan’s Fish accommodated my request so that I could ensure I’d be home to receive the fish I ordered. Each fish is individually packaged in water that appears clean, every fish appeared healthy and every bag is clearly marked so you know what you’re getting. After a horrible experience from another online seller, I appreciate Dan’s philosophy of wanting people to receive healthy, quality fish even more now. If there’s a certain kind of fish you want and can’t find locally, I highly recommend Dan’s. Especially if health & quality of the fish as well as transparency from who you’re buying from, matter to you.

Comment: I've only purchased fish online a couple times. This was my first from Dan's and I will never buy online from anyone else again. The overnight delivery is a must and the fish looked great. Good size, good color and are already thriving after a few days. Very happy customer.

Comment: Want honesty? Here you are: The UPS fella (was tracking the truck) drove around like a blind mouse...sure glad his phone headset was working, so he could continue his imperative, personal conversations, Robinhood stock tips via Nancy Pelosi, or simply checking on the status of the war in Ukraine. Found this fun fact out, when he interrupted his conversation to ask "Jeff?" at delivery and clocked the delivery.............Once the blind, very hip, and up-to-date on world affairs man left, the order arrived with some overheated bags (actually could've been worse, since that day was overcast here in SWFL). A couple fellas arrived super-stressed...freaked. All hands on deck, bags in tank IMMEDIATELY, reached out to Dan's Fish during the temps cool-down, and then drip acclimation to ease their journey from the "death valley" heat. Customer service absolutely took care of me, the fish are ABSOLUTELY-KILLER! In +/-40 years of off-and-on fishkeeping (I'm one of the nerds that bought the hard cover encyclopedia of tropical fish back in the '80's with my allowance), the. singlemost. beautifully-conditioned. specimen. ever. From stressed to fully colored/settled in within 24 hours - this, I believe, is the truest testament to their health at the time of shipping. IF you're on the fence in terms of cost (like I was, frankly), scope out the Dan's Fish tours on YT. He runs through their best practices, quarantining, feeding, keeping, and gives the low-down, per species...and is open on their pricing (whether generally or per species). I absolutely will be back (when my regular, more professional UPS driver returns from vacation, dropping my deliveries at +/- the beginning of his route!?). Plus, I became a bit of a chatty cathy over email with Dan's Fish (apologies to whomever was fielding all the those)...all emails had a response :) If you made it to the end of this review, I congratulate you and wish you the best of luck in your, personal fishkeeping journey!

Comment: Second time having fish delivered to Canada, and I'm very happy to say all the fish made it in great shape. The teacup platies are absolutely adorable! I appreciate that Dan's Fish ships to Canada as there are a lot of species that are almost impossible to find around here.
