Beautiful colouring

Very pleased

These are exactly what I was after for my aquascape. Active, colourful and clearly healthy. Acclimation was easy with no losses.

No complaints

Healthy fish, fair price, packed with care. Exactly what you want.

Great little fish

Bright, active and curious. They explore the whole tank and are always interested in feeding time.

Healthy, hardy and gorgeous.

Great seller

Communicative and clearly cares about the animals. The fish reflect that.

Will order again

Second time buying and just as good as the first. Reliable seller, good communication, healthy livestock.

Bigger than expected

Pleasantly surprised at the size when they arrived. Strong, alert and eating within the day. Will definitely order from School of Scape again.

Stunning fish

Wow. Just wow. These settled into my planted tank straight away and are constantly out and about. Packaging was spot on too.

Beautiful fish, fast post

Couldn't be happier. Packed well, posted quickly and arrived looking fantastic. They've become the centrepiece of my tank.

Lovely temperament

Peaceful and a great fit for my community setup. They get along with everything else in there.

Perfect addition

Added these to my community tank and they fit right in. No aggression, great colour, and the delivery was quicker than I thought it would be living regionally.

So vibrant

The colours pop under my LED lights. Genuinely some of the nicest specimens I've added to my tank.

Excellent service

Had a small concern about timing and the team responded quickly and sorted it out. Fish arrived perfect. Great customer service makes all the difference.

Settled in fast

Honestly impressed. Within two days they were schooling and showing off their best colours. The kids love watching them.

All survived transit

Every single one made it through delivery to Melbourne in great shape. Carefully bagged and double boxed. Couldn't ask for more.

Impressed

Better than my local store by a mile. Quality you can see straight away.

Good size and health

Decent size on arrival, no signs of stress and acclimated without any issues. Recommend to anyone.

Very happy

Came packed beautifully with heat pack and plenty of oxygen. Acclimated over an hour and they're thriving. Highly recommend.

Healthy and active

Arrived in great condition, all swimming happily within an hour of acclimating. Colours are even better than the photos. Really happy with the whole experience.

Love them

Such characters. Always out the front of the glass.

Happy customer

Arrived safe and sound interstate. The heat pack was a nice touch given the cold snap we've had.

Good experience

Smooth ordering and the fish were healthy on arrival. Took a couple of days to come out of hiding but totally normal.

Thriving

A few weeks in now and they've grown and coloured up beautifully. Eating everything I offer and very active.

Great

Lovely little fish, very active.

Top quality stock

You can really tell these are well looked after before shipping. No stress marks, no clamped fins, just healthy fish. This is my third order and the quality is consistent every time.

Quality stock

Clearly bred and raised properly. No deformities, great finnage and they ate flake straight away.

Recommend

Quality fish at a fair price. Will buy again.
