Comment: I'm very happy with my purchase. Everything arrived well packed and the delivery was quick. My fish (CPDs) and shrimp (orange shrimp) got here active and healthy with great color. I've had them for over a month and they're still going strong. I'm excited to buy from Dan's Fish again!

Comment: I ordered a pair of Apistogramma Macmasteri and a few Clown Killifish. I'm glad to say all of the fish arrived alive and in excellent condition! The quality of the fish was impressive. 2 and a half weeks later, the fish are doing great and my Apistos have started to spawn! Highly recommend and will order again!

Comment: I'm a first time buyer and was a little nervous trying this place out? I have had bad luck with other places online with fish. One place tried to pass a Killifish as a Double Red Dwarf Cockatoo?? Ha! Good try! Any ways all I have to say is WOW! GOOD JOB! I got what I ordered and fish were very healthy. I waited a couple of days till I wrote this. I watched their video on how they take care of their fish and ""THIER"" way on shipping them. Make since to me. Bags are a little small to PH Acclimate. But a little tape works out just fine. I will be ordering fish from Dan's Fish again and so should you. Thanks Guys!! Eric Ford

Comment: My order arrived right on time, and was extremely well packed, at 74.1f temperature on delivery. All the fish looked great! Now that over 2 weeks has passed, the fish are still all lively, healthy and thriving. Excellent fish, fantastic service, what more could you ask for! Thank you to everyone at Dan’s Fish!👍

Comment: Outstanding overall experience!!! The customer service is quick to respond and very helpful… The shipping/packaging is the best I’ve ever seen. Each fish is individually bagged and arrived at a safe temperature… The quality of Rainbowfish I received is hard to find and they immediately settled in to their new tank. The quality and attention to detail are the reason I will be back for more and will recommend dansfish to friends as well… Thank you for your hard work!

Comment: This was my 4th? time purchasing from Dan's Fish. Every previous order was perfect, the fish were perfect, no problems. This time I ordered 2 siamese algae eaters, 4 berlin swords (I asked for at least one male and at least one female, and they did it even though they were unsexed) and 4 saffron orange sailfin mollies. All of the fish arrived in good condition except one sailfin mollie had a strange sunken belly right behind the gills. The next day all of the mollies had their fins clamped. All of the fish ate the day of the delivery and the day after, so that's good. I notified Dan, and he refunded me for the molly with a sunken belly, and advised I use praziquantel to treat the mollies. I have to say I am disappointed, I appreciate the refund, but I would rather have a healthy fish than a sick free fish. This hasn't deterred me from ordering from Dan, in fact, I just placed another order for some different mollies, so we will see how they arrive, and hopefully Dan will go back to 100% for me. Dan still, even with the sick mollies, has a much better track record for me than my local fish shops.

Comment: All 10 of the cardinal tetras I ordered arrived safely and at a comfortable temperature. They all survived and are thriving in my tank today. Which was a huge comfort as I've read reviews that cardinals are not as hardy. (even a reputable lfs said the ones they sell are hit or miss) Turns out cardinals are hardy if they are taken care of and shipped safely. -First Time purchaser (definitely not the last time)

Comment: This is my first experience ordering fish online. I ordered 7 cardinal tetras on Thurs evening, got an email that evening that my order would be shipped on Monday, arriving Tues. Shipment arrived within the window provided by UPS. Very impressive, especially here in Northern NV! Fish were packaged very well. They looked transparent (could hardly tell they were cards), but lively. (Of course if you shipped me in a box from WY to NV, I'd be pale too!) Colors appeared shortly after arrival and they are acclimating well. 24 hrs later, they're still doing great! So far, so good! Thanks Dan!!

Comment: Nothing like a fish arrival day from Dan's Fish. Everyone was healthy and lively with some loss of color but you expect it. The pea puffers colored up very quickly and were almost full grown. The shrimp shipped with the guppy grass, I think guppy grass, was a nice benefit and food for my scuds. Five stars as always.

Comment: This was my first purchase from Dan's Fish. I was lucky enough to grab a pair of Apisto Agassizii 'Blue Flame' before they sold out. The fish from my calculations were in their shipping package for about 14ish hours. They arrived perfectly (as I suspected) and acclimated without issue. Will upload video as they settle in. 5 stars! 10/10. I will gladly recommend this company to others and purchase from again.

I do feel it is worth the cost for healthy fish that only need to get acclimated to my tanks to begin thriving. The packing job did keep my cool and my warm water critters alive and active on a 90 degree day. Good work.

Comment: Although I did have one DOA I’m confident it was nothing to do with the Dans Fish team, and just a lost fish due to shipping. Emailed them promptly after receiving the fish, with photos, and they quickly got my refund for me. The other two geo’s I got are happy healthy and swimming around the new quarantine tank. I was a little apprehensive getting the copper Molly’s without a picture but I’m so glad I did, they’re a beautiful orange and reddish color and the male even has slight blue streaks in his fins. Looking forward to adding them to my 55 and seeing lots of fry! Not my first purchase from Dan’s Fish, and it won’t be my last!

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)

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 my Khulis came in looking good and healthy with nice size and color, only one out of eight died and that was several days after receiving them. I'm not sure what the cause of death was, but I do not fault Dan's as the fish came promptly, looked healthy, and were carefully packaged

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: They’re thriving! I received a 50/50 ratio of males and females, they’re growing and breeding and just doing great. I love watching them, they constantly pick at biofilm and algae, they do twisty headstands all the time cleaning up the substrate. Everyone says they do better outside, maybe that’s true, I don’t know, but my medaka are doing great inside.

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.

Seller Reply: Hello Aerman, I'm so sorry that we didn't catch the problem before those turquoise guppies were sent out. 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: The Apistos came in very healthy and colored up immediately after acclimating and placing them in the tank. 2 of the 10 hummingbird tetras were doa and another passed after acclimating. I love how the hummingbird tetras swim it’s mesmerizing. I ordered more because I’d like the effect of a 15+ school.

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!
