Nice rare wild betta and arrived alive. But, required 2 weeks quarantine period before add to community tank. It's best used their medicated water bagged with the fish as long it's still work. Otherwise, you will need to find other medication for quarantine to replace the water. You can purchase velvet medication on their website. Shipping practices needed improvement.

Thanks for the helpful feedback Howard. We're always looking for ways to improve our shipping. If you have any suggestions, feel free to contact us anytime.
I forgot to request for heat packs. They showed up a little lethargic, but after floating them in warm water they were fine.

Hey Tony, sorry about the inconvenience. The weather probably got worse from when we looked it up. We're glad you floated them in warm water instead of tossing them away.
