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.

GBCanceled my order without notifying me Ordered a dwarf gourami, received confirmation email, then received an email that my order was delayed, checked the website and they were out of stock so maybe they miscounted. But a month goes by, and when I checked the website the fish were back in stock. I spoke with a rep asking what the status on my order was and they had canceled it without notifying me a couple days prior. Had to dig back a month in my card statements to be sure they actually reverted the charge and fortunately they did. Can't review the fish, never got it.

GBDead Aquaria I ordered a total of 42 fish for a total of $183. Of the 42 ordered fish, 4 were never shipped, 4 were dead on arrival and and 24 more died within 7 days of receiving the order. The condition of the fish upon arrival was as follows. 4 were covered in white fungus, 2 had visible parasites and many of the others had frayed fins and were generally unhealthy. As of the writing of the review, only 10 remain alive. After calling Live Aquaria, and emailing them, sending pictures and following their 7 day arrive alive guarantee, I am left holding the bag at a temendous loss of money. All they do is credit your account with the cost per fish excluding the cost of shipping, and their 7 days is actually only 6 days as they count off one of the days on day zero. I do NOT recommend doing business with this company.

GBDishonest - they take your money and run The company does not stand by their refund policy. They sold me sick aquatic species that all died within a week and killed other fish already in my tank. They refused to provide a refund and threatened to block me from all future purchases if I filed a credit card charge dispute, which I did. But it doesn’t matter now because I would NEVER order from their company again. There are other better alternatives out there. Don’t use this company.

GBFirst order will be last First order will be last. Sherry, the customer service rep on phone was rude and unprofessional. Supposed to be overnight delivery by 1:00 pm but FedEx is awful and Liveaquaria is an apologist for their inadequacy. Their website when ordering is also deeply flawed causing me to place a duplicate order which they claim will fall off my account in a few days. That remains to be seen. Would not recommend this company. Update : Fish arrived, late but alive. One BIG problem though, the two Kribensis I ordered and paid for were long finned Zebra Danios. Really? How can these so-called "aquatic experts" that "carefully select the fish" make that kind of mistake? I mean really the person selecting the fish must be totally clueless. Again it is the amateur hour over there.
