  • Geos came in from Cali....

    i got the box in and i was pumped to open it....



    This is NOT what you want to see when you spend hundreds of dollars getting fish shipped to your door....



    Two were dead but the rest were barely breathing, i placed them in the tank and hoped for the best, they layed on the floor, dead on their side for hours and MIRACULOUSLY they came to...i dont believe it.....





    they are still breathing heavy and not eating but they are swimming around and im hoping for the best...

                All that build up! Man, I would be mad too. It would have been better if they were to bag them individually.

                    whoever shipped those to you was not bright at all. the problem with them being in the same water is o2 depletion and the risk of one death killing all the others. a f-king bucket!! :furious::evil: kind of makes you wish you had the money to fly to cali. catch a cab to his house and smack some common sense to him. doesnt it?

                      Unbelievable!!! I can not believe that any reputable supplier would ship fish in this manner. I have only mail ordered once and lost two of six fish in the bag. Once that ammount of ammonia is in the common water it is just a matter of time before the others stop dropping off. Plus as Rico said they all suffer from lack of O2.

                      Sorry for your experience and loss. You might consider posting who you dealt with on this purchase so that others don't have to repeat your experience.

                              ya dude it pisses me off so bad....what makes me mad the most is that the ONE fish that i wanted the most (red head tapajos) was one of the two that were dead on arrival
