"Just horrible!!"

Ordered fish. Then the fish got shipped with FedEx and they lost my shipment and now I'm playing games between the shipper and FedEx. This is .crazy

"DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY"

I received a ridiculously Sexy Shrimp, so small you can barely see it. I received a Derasa Clam that was about an inch in size and looked cut in two. The other inverts I ordered were small and looked terrible. DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY.

"The packaging fee is kind of overrated"

The packaging fee is kind of overrated. The shipping is a little rough as it had me pay an extra $6 for it to be shipped to my personal address. Instead I picked it up at a holding facility. Although my fish did come in healthy and looked good. I also do think that they are a little overpriced. I would rate this place probably around average. Better stores if you're looking to go cheaper. The shipping came fast though.

"Low survival rate of livestock."

I am an experienced reefer ( over 6 years) and I placed three orders with Saltwaterfish. The first was back in 2017 when I was just getting into saltwater. Everything in that order was fine with no issues. The order I placed in January of this year had 2 rock flower anemones, a pistol shrimp and red starfish and 3 fish. The one anemone and the and shrimp did not survive for even 2 days. I receive store credit for them. The other anemone and startfish lasted a bit over a week, no credit. All of the fish survived quarantine but one died within a month of being place in the main tank. So for my $278 order I got 2 fish both worth less that $50. This order had a 29% survival rate. I tried again for a rock flower nem on July 6th, using my store credit and that order also had a scolly. The scolly is doing fine but the nem never made it (50% survival rate). It would not attach to anything and just faded away. It is not my tank or husbandry since a rock flower nem purchase at LFS and placed in the tank at the same time is doing great. Also Saltwaterfish's return/credit policy is such that I am not eligible for store credit on the third, dead nem. The long and short of this is I will not be buying from them again and I can not honestly recommend that anyone else do so.

"If size matters"

When it comes to getting the size as described on their website, DO NOT trust them.

"Avoid this scam site like the plague!"

We placed an order after hearing great things about the service. The fish arrived all dead with almost no water in them. The invertebrates were all dead, none moving even after we put them in our tank. It is amazing that a service like this couldn't provide water for their fish. I reached out to them and was told to take pictures and file an RMA.
We sent in a few pictures, and rather then work with us to resolve or give us credit, said sorry no refund because we didn't take photos according to their specifications. They never mentioned this when i reached out originally. How am i supposed to dig dead fish 3 days later out of the trash to take pictures according to their parameters; just not realistic.
Avoid this service like the plague, they have no care for the creatures they send and even less for the customers!

"Changed from 5 stars to 3 after second order"

Changed my review, just recieved my second order from them 2 Lionfish one was DOA. Water temps were only 63. So figured I would just order another one, but they were out of stock. Gave me store credit immediately for the DOA, but will not just give me my money back.
Also if they would have had the fish in stock I would of had to repay for shipping which I don't agree with.
They have a nice selection, customer service was prompt. Ijust don't agree with some of their policies. I will always try my LFS before ordering online, and will try a different company next time. The place is just a middle man. They don't see or ship their fish.

"Was my first and last experience with…"

Was my first and last experience with saltwater fish they mass up with size and quality all what I advise anyone buying online believe me if you go to your local store or if you drive to the next store will better and cheaper for you and you will pick what you like better than someone just want to finish his inventory pick it for you I thought I’m taking advantage on cyber Monday
But really disappointed
Be smart and go pick what you would like from your local store better than you blame yourself after you get some thing you don’t like and you pay a lot of money on it
When they send them message about my experience, their customer service didn’t do anything they contact me one time to review my case and never contact me back. Thank you saltwater fish, for this experience never buy from you again.

"Great company who cares"

They really care for their fish and customers. Fair prices with great giveaways.

"Best on the net"
