The person I ordered the fishes for was unsatisfied with the quality of the fishes.

I ordered two groups of fish: a pair of Betta antuta which I am more than happy with, and a set of 10 pygmy corydoras, which were very disappointing. Two of the corydoras appeared to have swim bladder issues upon arrival, but all were alive. I lost most of them within the next couple days though. Since BWA advertises selling quarantined fish, I would expect to receive healthy specimens. I assume I just got incredibly unlucky, but I will not be buying schooling fish from BW again. The other issue I had was a lack of communication. My order was delayed for a week without explanation until I reached out. While I received a reply fast enough, I would prefer an explanation be given without my having to ask, as that is what most other sellers I deal with do. The shipping itself was fine, came same day it was shipped and packaging was good enough.

The bettas arrived alive, after several days the male still has very little color, looks nothing like the picture shown when I ordered the betta.

I ordered a betta smaragdina guitar and it came quite healthy. However, it barely resembles the pictures provided. Fins and tail are quite different however the pattern is the same.

The fish arrived healthy and beautiful. Packed very well. But had an issue after releasing them into my tank. Sent an email but had no response.
