I'd cancel your order, and order from Kesgrave on Ebay. First hand experience that they are the shizzle

His L number plecos seem ok price wise, guess it depends on how healthy they are, hope yours turn up soon

I never bye live stock on line but looking at everything else there prices are not that competitive and from what is being said on this thread just a personal choice

Cheers

Does your gold nugget plec get on with all the others? I thought they were very territorial.

I was thinking about buying mail order fish as all fish shops seem to have the same limited choice of popular fish whereas I want other stuff, but after hearing this, I'll not bother.

I need to update that to be honest as there all gone apart from the L333's and the rummy nose. But yeah, everything was fine never saw any agression. He shared the large piece of bogwood with the BN whilst the 333's took the other piece and the slate cave.

Cheers

Don't let this put you off buying online, i have got most of my fish though the post, mainly from sellers on ebay and the prices have been great as have the fish.

Hopfully Badgers fish will arrive safe and sound too

Oh, Ok, thought you had a bad experience with them.

I have also been trying to contact them and so far, have heard nothing.

Got a reply from java plants finally:
"Dear Kieran,

Orders placed last sunday will be sent out next week.

Rgds
Mark"

Wont be ordering from them again..... a minimum of 8 day delivery!!!

I ordered some plants from another of these online plant shops. Can't remember exactly which one, it was a while ago. And it was basically the same thing.
You had to have your order in by a certain cut-off time. Then they place the order with their supplier in the East. It then comes into the country and gets sent on to you a few days later.

Must be honest, that although it is probably a bit more expensive., I prefer to go into my LFS and select what I want from the actually plants there.

 

[Squidward]

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

Has anyone heard back from him recently?
I am still waiting for a reply - nearly 2 weeks later
