My order consisted of 2 Dwarf Babytears, 3 java moss, a 3 pack of rocks and 20 Nerite Snails (god like, supposedly). HOWEVER, when I received the order everything looked ok, except for the brown look of the moss and the Nerite Snails that had a thin layer of water in the bag they were in. I placed the moss in my aquariums hoping the brown would go away but as of yet (3 weeks) the brown has not gone away and it looks dead. The Nerite snails that they "CLAIM" are basically god like and cannot die during transport, only 4 out of the 20 are alive, the others never moved from where they were placed in my aquariums and some of them didn't even have trapdoors on them when I put them in the aquarium (I thought they were small snails and the trap was way inside the shell. I emailed this company and no response. I have called during regular operating hours and the phone simply continues to ring with never any answer. I do regular water changes and weekly check my levels and everything is always good so since there are a few survivors its not my aquariums, it was the quality of the Nerites that AZ Gardens says they will never replace or refund for Nerite Snails, because "They simply will not die." I am very dissapointed in them and have sooner found out that they are rated an F in BBB |

Friday morning I recieved the package box from UPS directly. Bags were in a box stuffed with bubble wrap and newspaper. Water was ice cold. 1 bag with 20 fire/tetras all DOA and water dirty with plant material which look like it had been decaying for days because the water was brown colored. The other bags had 8 dead blue tetras and some still dying, the bag with 20 neon alive in cold water, and plants did not look healthy. I called and spoke to Pete who said just email the number of DOA. I did and they never responded or gave me credit. I tried to call and they never answered the phone. If your lucky , you will get the fish alive because they survived bad conditions. But theyre method of doing business is unethical to say the least. Oh, did I mention I added 4 killi fishes hoping to get a pair and they sent all males. I'll take the lost and never do business with them again. I have to change my account number because they may try to charge my account again, I dont trust them. |
Positive | waterlily1 (1 review) | On Apr 8, 2011, waterlily1 Frederick, MD wrote: OK, I must say that I was horrified when I read some of the negative reviews, especially since I did my research AFTER placing the order on-line with Arizona Aquatic Gardens. I placed an order on Monday morning from the East Coast for several very rare and unique species of aquatic plants and fish. I carefully read the terms and conditions on the vendors website and noted that most plant & live fish orders were shipped on Thursdays. I received an e-mail from UPS informing me of the shipment and tracking number on the Thursday of that same week and received all of the plants ordered on Friday. All of the plants ordered were in very good condition, and some of them exhibited such prolific growth upon arrival, that I was able to separate them and derive several healthy plants from a single-plant purchase. The shipping charge was based on the weight of the overnight package and matched UPS' rate chart to the penny. I must admit that the shipping cost was high, but this was the rate that UPS charged to ship an overnight package. Wait... I have not yet mentioned the live fish. My only disappointment was that the fish that I ordered were not in the package with the plants that were ordered on the same day. I was so looking forward to receiving these specimens, since I have never seen this species offered in any aquarium store (I'm 53 years old) and I thought that they would complement my aquarium at home very nicely. I read the terms and conditions on their website again and it said that the invoice would show that I had a back-order if the order was not shipped complete. I also noted that AZAG would only charge 50% of the standard shipping charge for back-orders and that I would have the opportunity to chance this order if desired. I waited one week... and no shipment. I e-mailed AZAG the second Monday (since their website explains that they are very busy with filling orders the rest of the week and Monday is the best time to contact them) and I received a response from Peter stating that my order would be going out in this weeks shipment. Shipment went out as promised, confirmed by e-mail from UPS and I received my two houseguests by overnight mail on Friday. As agreed, the UPS charges were charged only at half the standard rate. Note: All specimens arrived healthy and alive and are currently thriving and growing well in my home aquarium. Although I would have preferred the entire order to arrive in one shipment, after calculating the additional cost incurred for shipping, the difference paid was negligible. Overall, my experience was good. |
Positive | werepossum (1 review) | On Apr 5, 2011, werepossum Harrison, TN wrote: I too ordered a number of invertebrates from Arizona Aquatic Gardens which arrived almost all dead, but it was through no fault of theirs. My wife's brother suffered a heart attack and my wife, who is usually home, was at the hospital when the first two delivery attempts were made, so the shrimp had spent three cold days on FedEx planes and trucks before I could pick them up after work the next day. Everything was dead except for one lone cherry shrimp and the mussels. (My wife jokes that that was the most expensive freshwater shrimp ever sold, cost about a buck and a quarter for a 1/4" shrimp.) They did make a follow-up call and I explained the situation, and they were extremely nice, even offering to give me a full credit for the order (not including shipping of course.) I didn't take them up on that because it was completely not their fault and I wouldn't have felt right about it, and I never again ordered because I didn't want to risk even another $50 shipping, so I can't say for sure how they would have performed had we been home to receive the order, but I certainly had no complaints with their service. Everything ordered was correct in the order as well and was well packed in two large standard styrofoam fish boxes. |

At that point, I cancelled the order. |

I received plants that were frozen. ( I assumed that they froze when they were left outside my door, and that would be the carrier's fault, but the package did not say that it was plants, that they needed to be handled with care, that they could not freeze, or anything for the carrier to know.) The package was a beat up old cardboard box with the plants in plastic bags with a piece of newspaper covering them! Hello, they were being shipped to NY...it is the middle of winter!!! I contacted the company 4 times. I left two voice mail messages, and two e-mail messages. I also in good faith placed 2 more orders asking for a reduction in total of each one as a reimbursement. I received nothing. The reply I received was totally out of line....not sure who the guy is within the company that has been contacting me, but, wow, he is bad for this company's business....he started out by saying he did not get my messages, that "e-mail glitches are common"...after a few e-mails back and forth, he became personal..stating that, "reacting is not healthy", and that if I posted on a forum that I could land in serious legal trouble....I became sooo frustrated. Most companies will work with you, even if they don't think they are at fault to keep a customer. All I wanted was for them to reimburse me half of the cost of the plants. The e-mail that I received was totally out of line, ( he was threatening me, and chastizing me like he was my father). If I had any thought about using this company again, this person made it so there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY I WOULD ORDER FROM THEM AGAIN!!!! |

Negative | yarbie2 (1 review) | On Sep 29, 2010, yarbie2 Fairdale, KY wrote: Despite the grave reviews I saw online & the rebuttals from the company claiming reviews were written by competitors I decided to place an order. I ordered 9 fish & used their default shipping ($42.00 - pretty standard charge for overnight fish delivery). Fish arrived in a cardboard box with bags inside wrapped in newspaper & bubble wrap. The water had leaked out of one bag completely & two of the 9 fish (5 different species) I had ordered were DOA. By about 4 days later all were dead but one. The survivor by the way was a fish that I did not even order, he was automatically sent by the company as a sub for the fish I ordered. Contacted the company immediately & when everyone else died, the same person whom I had spoken with 3 times was pretty nonchalant about the whole thing & offered to credit my account for the 2 DOA's. He also informed me I would have to pay shipping again to reorder! Have been keeping fish for over 15 years & have ordered online many times before & since ordering with this company. I called before I ordered & questioned the company about the bad reviews & let me warn you they have smooth operators answering the phone who assured me I would not be sorry I chose to give them a chance. HEED MY WARNING SHOP ELSEWHERE!!!!!! At this point I paid $80 for the one remaining live fish & $60 for the order I placed elsewhere for the fish who died from this company--by the way the ones from another company came packaged appropriately in a cooler & are all healthy & happy swimming in my tank! |

During the three month, I email them at least 4 times, replied only once said, "Your order will be ready in 4weeks", that was in April. After recieving the wrong order, I called the ordering line, no answer, Main office, no answer, site's email system, no answer, question email address, no answer.... PLEASE THINK TWICE BEFORE DOING BUSINESS with this company. I am planning to report them to BBB of Arizona. |

I thought I'd check my account today to see if my credit went through and there was a surprise waiting for me. My original email receipt from them was for $35.20. The original charge they made against my account was for $40.20. I assumed the additional $5.00 was for shipping. Today, when I checked my account - I see they have just posted another additional charge of $15.78 today. (Interesting how that happened immediately after my dispute was filed.) We are now up to $55.98 for $35.00 worth of snails, plus the $36.00 the bank charged for the dispute, plus possibly another $36.00 to dispute this new charge of $15.78 (it's pending - I have to wait until it posts before I can dispute) - for a grand total of $127.98. For snails. That I don't have. Nice, eh? On April 14th, 2010, mad4roses added the following: I have discovered (through the powers of my own deduction, certainly not through any effort to communicate on AAG's part) that the additional charge was for shipping. So it was $20.78 total to ship a $35.20 order that arrived in a box that would be too small to ship a Rubik's cube. Apparently, they decided to suddenly send my order after I disputed the charge through my bank. 14 of the snails I ordered were DOA, but I'm done. I called the bank and told them to let AAG keep the money. Their indifference, the complete absence of any communication, the inability to contact anyone when a problem arises, the ridiculously high and hidden shipping fees, the month-long silent wait and the dead snails is a lesson learned. I won't be back. |

Negative | dbromsey (1 review) | On Dec 7, 2009, dbromsey Uniontown, OH wrote: I ordered a variety of aquatic plants and 2 different fish species from this company. The charges for product were @ $55.00. Although the site tells a buyer that they will be charging separately for air freight, I assumed that they would tell me what thse charges would be before the order had actually been placed. Not so. Not only did they not advise the freight charges, but they immediately charged my card for the goods....$10.00 more than they quoted! As soon as I saw that the charge had been made for more than the quoted selling price, I e-mailed the company canceling the order and demanding a refund. Within a day I got a confirming e-mail stating that my card had been credited....again not true. We went around and around on this until I simply decided that this was a scam operation and turned the matter over to my credit card company. They got the issue resolved but it took 30 days to do so. |
Negative | lindaroot (1 review) | On Nov 10, 2009, lindaroot Yucca Valley, CA wrote: On October 21, my husband discovered the website, and filled out an order form for 6 celestial pearl danios, and advanced to the next page expecting shipping information, but instead got a confirmation of order. He immediately emailed and told them not to fill the order until he was advised re shipping costs. We heard nothing further, no confirmation of order, NADA for ten days. Then on November 2, after we had purchased other fish we received email from Nick Jones of AZgardens indicating shipping costs were actual, and referring to link in an updated website that gave us some information, and nowhere indicating there was an existing order. I am a California lawyer and my husband's immediate notice to them not to ship weeks before is a legally sufficient notice of recission. I responded tto Ms. Jones email that I would likely submit an order on the next Monday, i.e., Nov. 9, which is a pretty clear indication of our understanding that we had not ordered anything. On November 4, I visited this website and others, and became aware of problems others have had with AZG. At that point I had no intention of ever ordering from AZG. That afternoon to my great surprise, without any acknowledgment of any order or any notice of shipping, we received a package containing two dead, one dying, and three stressed but living CPDs, packed in a huge used box for which we were charged $5 in a bag containing charcoal or some similar abrasive. Shipping costs were nearly $32. Two more fish died before the day was out, and the next day, the last one died in his hospital tank. I sent photos. Today Jones offers to give us a credit or replace the two that I can prove were DOA, i.e., $13.98. Out of pocket loss on this transaction is $76.00, for which we received absolutely nothing of value. Why would I spend another $32 in shipping, $5 in box fees to possibly recover less than $14! STAY AWAY from this vendor. |
Negative | fearful (1 review) | On Nov 5, 2009, fearful Birmingham, AL wrote: I ordered from Arizona Aquatic Gardens last week, and still have not received any emails of confirmation, or fish. If the fish aren't ready to be shipped, they should be labeled 'sold out' or 'out of stock'. It should not take a week to ship fish. I ordered a tool off of ebay and it arrived faster than this! I am now nervous after reading all the negative posts, and wish I had done this research sooner. I will call them as soon as possible to let them know about this, and because today's thursday, I won't be able to call them. I wonder what they will do about the late shipping charge, though... I used a one-time safe credit card to order, and didn't put any more than the present order dollar amount... I will call them, I will file claims with the BBB against them, and I will continue until I get my fish. Seriously, how long can it take to ship four fish and a can of food? If they are a family business like they say they are, why can't they take orders more personally? With all these negative comments, only the people who are ordering for the first time - and probably last time - they can't have that many customers. They never sent a confirmation email like all the REAL companies do, or maybe just the professional ones. I will keep you updated on what happens. STAY AWAY!!!!! |

Also, importantly, when I have called and talked with someone at AZ, they have always been very friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to help. I am really surprised to read such negative reviews, and joined Dave's Garden forum just so I could go on record as saying I absolutely would - and do - recommend AZ Aquatics to anyone who loves aquarium critters as I do. |

I paid $41.24 for the snails and $14.30 for shipping. At that time, I called and talked to Peter who said he would ship out a replacement because their shipment is guaranteed. The reship consisted of snails I didn't order (15 Olive Nerites), plus they charged me another $37.98 for overnight shipping. When I called Peter, he said I would have to pay extra for overnight shipping. I could not seem to get him to understand that I didn't order what I received. I emailed several times with no response. I finally called and spoke to Nick who said he didn't know how that error happened and that he would refund that shipping cost and send the original order. Neither event has happened. On 6/19, I finally emailed and asked that they cancel my order. Nick replied that my order would be shipped Tuesday June 23. This shipment also never took place. I emailed again asking that they cancel my order. I have since gotten my pond snails locally. I also have filed a complaint with the BBB. AZgardens has not responded to them either. I only used AZgardens because they were closer to Utah, but I'm now back to using thepondguy.com. |

As a first time customer only because I received an unsolicited $6.00 coupon in my email, did I make the mistake of ordering from this company. Due to their policy of not determining shipping fees till shipment, they do not include the shipping fees on the invoice for what you purchased.. I ordered a few plants, less than $30.00 worth and was charged $50.55 for FedEx Priority Overnight Shipping separately. I was stunned when I saw this amount appear on my credit card. I have never purchased anything on-line that I wasn't privy to all charges prior to shipment. I took the advice of another writer in this area and have filed a complaint with the Arizona BBB. I encourage everyone to do the same. On August 17th, 2009, phishnplantz added the following: UPDATE: After forwarding my dispute information to my credit card company regarding the unprofessional and blind billing issues with AAG, I just received a full refund on the order and shipping. I also provided the BBB rating of "F" and they are not an accredited business due to their failure to address the majority of complaints. |
Negative | jillofall (6 reviews) | On Jul 1, 2009, jillofall Colorado Springs, CO (Zone 5a) wrote: I have some issues with this company, although they also have some good points. They billed me when I ordered the minimum order size of mosquito fish (51 for $35.19 + $5 for box). I prefer to be billed when they ship, especially since they didn't ship for 3 weeks. They also do not send email so you never really know what is going on. They were very polite when I called, and did call back when I left a message. The fish arrived just fine. The BIG problem was the cost of the shipping. They claim they can't calculate shipping until they ship, and then they make a second charge on your credit card for shipping. In my case they shipped to Colorado, not far from AZ, but the fish were shipped in a large styrofoam box FedEx Priority. I was shocked when I was charged $81.36 for shipping. This is very high and I would NOT have ordered the fish for $35 had I known it would result in $120+. Just be prepared for this. This was not the handling charge, but the actual shipping charge from FedEx. |

Negative | cbarch (1 review) | On Nov 14, 2008, cbarch Joelton, TN wrote: I have been royally screwed on shipping charges and have lost the fish I ordered! I ordered 5 siamese algae eaters and 6 cherry shrimp, the total for these was around $57. When I went thru the online checkout there was an estimate given of $35 dollars or so for shipping. The day after I received the package 4 of the 5 SAEs were dead, and I found the 5th one dead this morning. I've seen a couple of the shrimp, but fear that some of these may be dead as well. My tank is already established with several other fish that are doing perfectly fine right now. I called AAG today to find out what they could do about this. The guy I talked to just told me about all the stuff that I could have done wrong, talking about adding salt and other chemicals to my tank, then he told me that he'd send me some new fish if I'd pay for the shipping again. However, he couldn't tell me how much that would be. He switched me back to another person who looked up what I had paid for shipping. There's a reason they don't tell you when you order what shipping will be, because the shipping charges on my order (for a 4 lb. 10"x10"x10" box) was $76!! What a freaking ripoff!!! Don't waste your time or money on these clowns. |

I will be attempting to contact the company soon as it has yet to send up any viable leaves. The root still feels firm, but all it has managed are three very spindly stems with no leaf formation on the ends. I will up-date here with their response. The reason I am commenting now is the cost of shipping. I sure wish I had read comments here before ordering. The plant total with tax was $41. Shipping was $45!! Not overnight.....just their standard rates. I won't be ordering again soon. |

The shipping cost nearly as much as the order, and the order was a little over $100. That, in my opinion, is ridiculous, and misleading, especially to withhold costs and then give estimative figures as low as 20-$45 on their website. What do you have to do to get $45 in shipping, order a single plant or fish? This is a qualified negative review, however, as Arizona Aquatics does have some good points. |
