GBMissing and Dead Fish, Horrible Company Fish are guaranteed alive and their website states their shipping is top quality. Only half my fish arrived, in a cardboard box, a few newspapers, 1 hand warmer with a flimsy white paper plate. The water was yellow and fish dead or dying. Did not make it through the night. I placed a claim like I was told for the dead fish, and they issued a refund for the missing fish. Store credit can only be used at check out in the comment section and they state you will be charged full until the run the credit. After a few days (I ordered non living items) I sis not notice my credit issued. I contacted the company and they stated I did not have a credit. And since the items had already shipped, they could not stop the order. Convenient for them I know.

GBDead fish, bad guarantee I ordered several killifish; 6 rainbow Boesmani, 2 angelfish, and a dozen cardinal tetras. They failed to send a shipping email, which I was told to expect. It's getting cold, so I'd like to have a rough idea when they are shipped. Luckily, I was home. Angelfish were canceled-no big deal. Tetra bag leaked in box, but they were alive-we'll see. All 6 Boesmani were dead. I was refunded $75 in store credit. Between the $30 shipping and $10 box charge, that leaves $35 in credit to a company I no longer trust to send me live fish. If they send you dead fish, they should replace them, and cover shipping.

GBBad fish quality I have a 75 gallon tank. I have placed an order with LiveAquaria on 2 separate occasions, and both times have lost most of the fish within the first week. The first time, I blamed it on the fact that I was a new hobbiest and was inexperienced. Many successful years later, the same thing happened with the second order. 2 fish were DOA, and I keep losing more fish by the day. I followed all the proper acclimation procedures. There are fish in that tank that are over 4 years old and still thriving. The only ones dying are the ones from liveaquaria. You can’t get a refund, only a store credit which is completely useless to me. I will never again be placing any orders with them.

GBMy first order and the fish was dead My first order from them resulted in a dead blend arriving and an order for a coral that was in stock when I purchased but, after I submitted the order, was back ordered for weeks possibly. Customer service said they’d apply credit to my account for the dead fish. But, if I want to reorder, they'd charge me $40 for box fees and shipping if I want use that credit to get a new fish. I have. A”box” right here that the dead fish cane in and $30 shipping that the was wasted. And I’m not sure if, when my coral gets in stock, they’ll charge for shipping that separately. I won’t be using them again.

GBWow, absolutely horrible! Wow! Horrible place to order from. Should have looked at the company's reviews online before using them. Messed up two orders, then, when I canceled they said it would be 3-5 days for the charge to come off. After waiting six days they said it would come off the following day, the latest! That has come and gone. I would suggest just going to the closest ocean and trying to catch your own fish or gather corals, you will have better luck with that! A 1 rating is actually too much!
