10 Beatiful and Healthy Gold Ring Danios
All I can say is WOW! The 10 GRD's I purchased from Petzonesd arrived on time and all 10 were healthy and very active. As I newbie I've experienced nightmares in this hobby when it comes to online purchase of livestock. You don't have to worry if you buy from Petrzonesd. They are professional and keep the lines of communication open from start to finish. You always know the status of your order at every stage. I will definitely be ordering again from Petzonesd in the near future and I highly recommend them to anyone. The fact that they even had GRD's is impressive to me. Thanks Petzonesd aka my new Westcoast Livestock connect.
