I ordered from Divers Den @LiveAquaria twice and both times the fish are either not WYSIWYG or they were extremely sick after their images were taken and being shipped. I ordered a pair of Bangaii cardinalfish. Both arrived very skinny and malnourished, please see images. I also ordered a Randall’s prawn goby and pistol shrimp. The prawn goby came DOA with what looks like a bad bacterial infection on its tail. Please see images of the WYSIWYG pic and mine. Lastly, in the same order I received a completely DOA clown goby (not divers den) that looked like it had been dead for days. I still have not heard back from them and at this point do not want credit. I received credit before and this is what happens when you reorder!
