Received a great mix of colors — had red, green, and black swordtails. They were active and stayed calm with my other fish. The packaging was secure and the fish seemed healthy right upon arrival.

Love the vibrant tail fins. They’ve been in my tank for two weeks and are still swimming actively. The variety in colors makes the tank look lively and full of life.

The fish arrived quickly and looked healthy. A few of them were slightly smaller than expected, but they’re still very active and adapting well to the tank.
