Well I played russian rulette and placed an order. It arrived today. I ordered 304.00 Worth of stuff from them. Here are my problems.......

2 shrimps not shipped but billed
1 goby not shipped but billed

all fish except 1 arrived dead. here is what arrived dead...

Blue hippo
yellow tang
royal gramma
2 stripe damsel
mated perc clown pair
1 perc clown
2 lyretail chromis
firefish

I ordered like 65 snails of different kinds too but I am not sure how they are doing yet though. The water temp of the bags when they arrived was 53 degrees. 2 heat packs in the makeshift styrofoam box.

OVERALL, PLEASE EVERYONE DON'T ORDER FROM THEM. THEY HAVE NO PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE WHEN IT COMES TO DEALING WITH EVERYDAY BUSINESS EITHER... I AM WAITING TO SEE HOW THEY HANDLE THIS..

Man they realy have gone down hill. I never had a problem with them. A nother friend of mine just ordered and they had several dead items and items not shipped but still billed for. He is having a tough time as well. So sorry to hear this.

Does it look like your bank will do a charge back for you?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't order from them. I would give it maybe a 40 percent chance if it was warmer outside, but if you do not trust my experience. Just call the number on the website. There is an older lady that answers the phone with a simple ..... Hello... She sounded like she ws babysitting.. I honestly don't think there is an actual place where the fish are kept. I think they order there fish from someplace else and have them delivered to them on a tuesday and then they ship them out in the same bags they got them in a ay later. This place is a scam..
I am not sure if the bank is gonna be able to do it..
