Has anyone purchased from......

[johnnymisty]

They were physically flooded if so that's a lil different situation as long as they have kept you up to date on what's going on With them its understandable

[Outofexile86]

I want to give them a chance.... They have been flooded and that is why its taken so long... As long as the fish look good when i receive them, I will be happy.. They said they need to catch 2 of the fish.

I'd cancel the order and get my money back

[Outofexile86]

Yah, so far really bad actually for me..... Its been 3 weeks and now they said it will be at least another week.... So it will be 1 month from the day I ordered.... (if i get them next week)

I tried to make a plant and shrimp order from there a couple of years ago. Plants were very small and most died pretty quickly after arrival. I won't blame them on the deaths though, I was pretty new to plants. The shrimp never showed. They claimed they sent them and my apartment building must have lost them. Not sure who to blame, I just gave up and took the loss. I would be wary though.

Run Run! Stay away...
The people there are either seasoned scammers or have no clue what they are doing.
I ordered a few of what they call "black forest" shrimp (which they picture as spongicola on their website) and they sent me what looked like grade C bee shrimp.
I emailed to say they sent me the wrong shrimp but they claim that its correct. I even sent a picture of what i recieved and asked them to compare with that they had pictured on their website. When they realized that the picture was of a different type of shrimp, instead of apologizing, they accused me of trying to scam them by sending a picture of different shrimp! Imagine that!
Stay away... FAR AWAY!

You saved my butt. I was going to put an order in for those too. After doing a bit of googling, there isn't anything (like ANYTHING) on that species of shrimp. If they looked anything like that picture I would count it as a big win, but as of now... I won't be taking the bait.

Www.bigalsonline.com for equipment needs but not fish

Best part about them is no tax and very little shipping if any at all.

[eklikewhoa]

Wasn't there some sort of issues with AZ recently?

I've ordered in the past with no problems but remember reading something about them recently, it might be on plantedtank.net.

[barrettsline]

Ok, I may try to order from AZ in a couple of weeks when I get payed. If it all goes through well, ill let everyone know. I want some Redhead severums at like $8 a pop doesnt sound to bad.

Let me know. Want the same.

i ordered exclusively from AZ and florida driftwood ten years ago and got very good service from the former. they are cheap because they have their own stocking and breeding ponds, they arent a middleman in most cases. i havent ordered from them since i got back into the hobby recently though. their flat rate shipping isnt really clear. i dont mind paying 40 bucks for express mail but i am not entrirely sure thats what you get for that amount. if our red devil crab group buy doesnt get enough support then i may buy them from AZG unless i find some nice CB somewhere that will ship to me.

i order my equipment from the drs, thatpetplace, and petmountain depending on who has the best deals at the time.

aquabid does have some risk but probably less so that ebay since its a smaller community and scammers are rooted out more quickly. the good side is you will find things there that you will find no where else. make sure what you are buying can be legally shipped to texas though.
