We got the fish they arrived alive, but they did not last. I believe they spent too much time in the heat as I live in the south upon getting my order the fish died even after we did all the steps to get them ready for moving into our pond. they lasted 30 min in the pond before they all died. the snails died too. only the plant survived.
If shipping to southern states maybe, consider overnight options as our heat is too much on the fish.
the fish were good looking only one had a deformed eye. but I was ok with that. the other fish we received were decent looking.
Just disappointed as I spent almost $80 and only have the plant left.

I have ordered several Rachu's from several different sites/people. For this price you get what you pay for. I ordered 6 and 2 are dead after 2 weeks. I keep a pond of 20+ Ranchu and these are weak with poor genetics. Fine if you just want $7 fish but don't expect to raise these up to be big nice fish. They were also several inches smaller than my other Ranchu's but with almost the same size tail... there are many signs of over breading. Low quality fish!

Ordered 6, all healthy and cute. Ordering another 6 now
