    Ok

    The plastic bags that the fish were shipped in were really dumb. The bags were closed with two different rubber bands. The bags were so small that by the time I got them off there was not enough space to add tank water for proper acclimation. Fortunately I have a quarantine tank. Major FU !!

    Healthy fish

    Ordered 6 congo tetras, all arrived happy and healthy with a bonus Congo included. Immediately started exporting the tank and swimming around confidently. Once I found flip aquatics I don’t get my fish from anywhere else!

    Beautiful Congo Tertra

    The Congo Tetra arrived healthy and beautiful with the exception of one of the extras you sent - a female. The others, a great split of male and female, are all thriving and looking awesome. The males are now the most beautiful freshwater fish I’ve owned. At feeding time they flash beautiful coloring and they are still very young. Absolutely stunning display! Great job and thank you for the split of make-female!
