Aquarium depot .(com) pods?

[mblock]

has anyone ordered live pods from aquarium depot? I've tried several places for pods, algebarn the most often. Their targeted ad to me shows HUGE pods (amphipods?) and I'm curious to try them, but would love to hear some real experiances

I had ordered 2 different times this past summer. Both orders were DOA. I just received an order today from Rusalty. Great quality. I’ll be placing another order

I've ordered probably 10-20,000 pods from her. 99% of the time its great. There was a brief period she was going through some personal stuff and shipments were DOA. The pods are always huge and my fish love them.

My experience withAquarium Depot. Ordered 2000 Ampipods after delayed shipping over a week I sent a message requesting update. Received canned response saying they are waiting for the weather to clear. (I live 2hrs away from them in Fl weather was fine) waited a few more days and made several requests to cancel order. No response started my PayPal complaint and all of a sudden they ship. What they shipped me was an empty bag with maybe 8-10 dead pods. The bag and box were soaked and smelled horrible. So now I have to refile my PayPal complaint.
