Im thinking about ordering some figure of 8 puffers from this store, as im not having much luck in my LFS.

Im a bit funny about posting fish so would like your opinions. Has anyone ever used this company? If so, would you recommend it?

Cheers

Never used that company, but I have had fish in the post before and providing it's done properly, wouldn't have any issues with it again.

The have some lovely L numbers on that site!

Never used them in fact till you mentioned them I had not heard of them.

Done a few price comparisons for food treatments and hardware there prices are Okay but still more expensive than my usual supplier.

Well i ordered yesterday. £15 for 'next day delivery'. When it said next delivery i was thinking that i would be recieving the fish today or tomorrow at latest (as i ordered after 12pm), but i got a message saying i would recieve them within seven days I've rang them 3 times since and got nothing but answer machine. I've left 2 messages but not heard anything yet back.

So far.... Dissapointed.

Cheers

how daft, 'within seven days' you supposed to sit in all week waiting!

Well i suppose every cloud does have a silver lining..... I was laid off on monday hahaha But if someone did only have a couple of days off work then it would be a great inconvenience.

Ouch, sorry to hear about your job D:
On another note, that is a beautiful pleco!

You will only get his answering machine, best email him and he replies pretty quick.

I ordered 50 Cardinals from him, they all arrived dead. He resent them free of charge, but they died too on arrival. He refunded everything to me. It was delivery companies fault first time, then the second was a cold night so i think that did it.

Good guy really, just not advisable to mail order fish to Scotland in winter!

I'd deal with him again, but i think his prices are generally expensive!

Thankyou matey.

Lets hope my rummy nose and F8 puffers turn up alive

I'll drop him an email now

Cheers
