First and last time I'll order from NY Aquatics and wanted to share my experience so that others are aware of the shady business.
I have been looking for a Randall's Goby (Orange Stripe Prawn) and found one in stock at NYAquatics.com. Awesome, I thought to myself. So I ordered the little guy. To try and justify shipping costs, I added a few more items to my cart that I could purchase at my LFS, but the purpose of my order was to get the Goby. When the item arrived, it was the wrong fish. The species/listing on the website also vanished. Instead of the Randalls Goby, I received some other fish that was ill on arrival and died the same day. Still working with seller to establish satisfactory resolution, but I don't see it happening. I may end up going to BBB. I won't give any more of the details, but this is a merchant to be weary of, IMO. The fish they shipped me wasn't even listed on their site.
