Default Re: Dr. Fosters & Smiths

I have purchased fish from LiveAquaria.com and from other places online that had the same fish for less money and found the cost of LiveAquaria much higher but also the quality of the fish much better. They are larger and have had a better survival rate (never lost one) and they have been healthy all the time. I got fish from other places that arrived and lived just long enough to be out of the Live Arrival guarantee and then died or were just not ever the really healthy fish I wanted. So while I can get upset at their policy of minimum orders when I only need a few fish and when I champ a bit at the high prices I remember they will be alive in a year or two or three and the others may not be or will have used the difference in the price up in medications and time spent caring for illness. DrsFosterSmith.com and LiveAquaria.com recently added the option of PayPal to their ordering and payment options also which makes more likely to use them for my main supplier in the future.


I do not however order my bettas from LiveAquaria.com
