Has Anyone Tried Saltwaterfish.com?

I have too. I ordered a clean up crew. Half of the stuff died the same day and half is still fine. They will credit you and resend the items that died in the next order.
All in all they're ok!

Half dead sounds pretty crappy to me. And you have to buy another $75 of livestock to get all your dead critters replaced, right? And their policy says you have to pay another bunch of cash for "box-fees" etc for the free shipping. Sounds like a real crock to me.
 
I've ordered a few times, great service. Loss one time on seahorses, instant credit no questions asked. Free shipping with $79 minimum, 9.99 box charge.

Let me see :rolleyes:

Free shipping + $9.99 box charge = $9.99

Most shipping $50-$60.00 + box charge, plus heating packs, Hmm :rolleyes: ;)
 
Liveaquaria.com charges $24.99 for up to $300 worth of livestock, no min.
Saltwaterfish.com charges $9.99 + $1.99 fuel surcharge but you must by $79 worth of livestock..

LIveaquaria will credit your credit card if you get doa livestock..
Saltwaterfish.com will give you a store credit in which you have to pay another $12 free shipping charge and order another $79 worth of items - not including the dead items your replacing..

So technically its in their best interest to send you 1 dead item with every order, that way you can order another $79 +$12 .....

Plus you have to mail them the dead item back too!
 
I didn't mail my seahorses back. A lot of people order several items to make the shipping charges worthwile no matter which online store they use. Could that be why so many people jump onto group buys. I'm not hyping the place, it's just that $79. isn't such a bad minimum, there are plenty of places with $200., 250. mins.. Most places don't even offer them. The original question was "Has anyone tried these guys?"
