Terrible Customer Service Department. Absolutely awful first and definitely last experience with this company.
Have ordered and received both small ticket and large ticket items from them over the past month. I am local, so I order to pickup. I make the order, and then call an hour later, and give them an estimated time that I will be arriving. They always have the order ready to go, and everyone from the person who answers the phone to the person who hands me my order (and helps me take it to my car) have been fantastic.
Fast shipping, the glass arrived intact but the packaging on the stand could have used a little more protection... luckily all the slightly damaged corners are hidden! I’ve wanted a fluval flex since they first came out and when they came out with the 32 gal I was sold. It was impossible to get locally so I’m glad to have found a company that could safely ship it to me! It’s awesome!
Very Fast Delivery, Great Products! Best Value and Prices.
Backwards Service - would not process my order without a valid photo ID on file (with an address that matches the shipping address). Why not ask for that when checking out? I've never dealt with anything like this before. I would use another service if you would like to actually get your stuff without delays and jumping through unnecessary hoops. Not coming back
Their dosing container is great. Thanks
Got standard shipping and it only took a few days to get the lights in.... Definitely use aquacave again
Great place to shop in Friendly service
The only reason I didn't rate this purchase 5 stars is my inability to find a bulk price for my item. I probably would have purchased a box had I been able to find discount pricing for the whole box instead of purchasing each separately. As for the item, I have never had any issue with the bubble stones. They work until they don't. :) But they last a long time if you are careful with them. Definitely recommend this company. Update: I need to amend this, as I see they now offer this product in bulk. Great company. Listens to their feedback. What more could you ask?
Got what I wanted in great shape. Thank you
Had exactly what I was looking for. Fast shipping. Website has a good layout.
Good price. Great service
On the website it Specifically states : * Our Certificates do not expire. Lies. Tried to use my $100 Gift Card didnt work so I made a ticket on the website. I log in the next day it says you never created a ticket. Ok maybe I didnt submit it. So i Created another ticket after 4 tickets being deleted. I called them They said they would look it up and see why its not working. 1 week latter and 5 phone calls NOTHING horrible company
The shipping was very swift, the price competitive. There was minor damage on one of the planks, which is a pity. In itself, it is a very nice looking and sturdy aquarium stand and AquaCave did everything right. Would shop here again.
This is the first time I have purchased from AquaCave. I called them to find out what to expect when ordering dried coral by the pound. I spoke to Albert. He gave me very specific instruction on how to request the coral. after I placed the order Albert followed up within hours to provide me with options that were close to what I specified. We agreed on the order and it shipped out the same day. The order was placed on Thursday 4/19 and the package showed up on Saturday 4/21. The packaging was exceptional. I highly recommend AquaCave based on the fantastic service I received. Tim
Not a retail store.
Great Company with excellent service and support after the sale!!!
Nice extra touch in the packing of my products, specifically the aquarium heater which could be broken by excessive jostling during shipping. Very prompt packing and shipping.
Ordered and received my product quickly! AquaCave continues to win my business!
On time. Excellent packaging. Great price.
Received item quickly, however it was severely damaged in shipping. Had to return.
AquaCave shipped my order in an extremely time efficient manner considering I ordered my finnex 24/7 planted + light fixture the day after Christmas. It arrived well packaged and un damaged by Dec 31 with priority mail service ( under $5 shipping rate). So far, this is the best led light I have owned. I got back into the hobby a year and a half ago and the lightning systems have changed alot. I’m used to using fluorescent lighting for planted aquariums and led lights are taking over the hobby. I know you can still get fluorescent lights on line ( next to impossible to find locally where I live) but didn’t want the hassle of searching and ordering bulbs on line every year plus you can’t get an ease of operation for simulating a 24 hour cycle of light ( sunrise through midday into evening then night) with the fluorescent lights. They are on full blast or off. I’m looking forward to a more natural light effect for my tank. We’ll see how well my plants do in time with this light. It seems brighter than the other leds I’ve had and my plants have done good so far ( low to moderate light requirements).
Received my new aquarium light yesterday and I couldn't be happier with it. Aquacave was quick to ship it too which was nice!
I would leave a -star if I could. I placed my order on 12/25/18 and I never received my order. Tracking information says it was delivered by USPS but it never came to my house. I have the ring doorbell and no one came to my door then day the tracking information says it was delivered. I then contacted Aquacave and informed them. Aquacave says they will contact USPS to do a trace and it could take 3 weeks. They contacted USPS to do a trace. USPS informed Aquacave it was delivered to my residence. I reached out to Aquacave again and they stated for me to do a police report with my local police department. I then did a police report with my local police report and informed Aquacave my incident # from my police department. Today Aquacave emailed me and stated they can not do anything else and will close my case with them. I waited almost 4 months for a replacement to be sent to me but now they are stating they can not issue me a refund or send me my order that a paid for. What a horrible company. Please do not do business with Aquacave unless you want to pay for an item and never receive it. Horrible customer service and horrible company. I will never order from them again.
No comment!
no problems
they have what i need, ship quickly, very fair prices, and very well packed - just what I'm looking for
Ordered a skimmer pump March 8th now it's the 17th and still no pump.after repeated phone calls and emails I was told yesterday it was shipped from eshopp.i asked for a tracking number and still nothing.itll be the last time I order from here.customer service is obviously not there priority.
This was a pretty basic order. but I have placed much larger orders in the past. These guys have very good customer service and competitive pricing. Orders ship on time and are well packed. What more can you ask for?
Good price. Well packaged.
Great prices. fast Shipping.
Aqua Cave had the best price I found for an aquarium light I wanted. My order shipped THE SAME DAY and by Priority Mail even though it was free shipping. So, I received exactly what I ordered less than 48 hours after placing the order. Very happy!
Excellent service , thanks
Decently priced , stocked well . I like the fact that the free ground shipping arrives in 2 days , happened on both occasions
fast delivery amazing products
Reasonable price, quick service
Perfect...always a pleasure to order from this company!AAA+ service!
Aquacave saved my reef, only place in US that had an Octopus external skimmer in stock to replace my unrepairable 12 year old skimmer. It was shipped quickly. Thanks.
I have placed several orders through this company over the past couple of years and I must say that Every time has been a great experience. Very fast free shipping. Always get what I order for a great price. Anytime that I have had to call I was helped right away by very pleasant people. I will purchase from them again and will recommend others as well. Keep up the great work AquaCave
Excellent product and came a day early!
The best place for all your aquarium needs! Thanks Albert and Team.
The best Marine supply in Illinois!
They used to be an alright place to order from . As of lately they sell things that are never in stock. Items say in stock but then they drop ship them. So it takes longer then normal to get. Really starting to piss me off. Shipping is sorta jacked I get some thing in 2 business days and some cone in over 5 to 7 .
Fast shipping and great prices
Very good packing, product received with no damage. Will buy from again.
I have ordered from AquaCave numerous times and they have the slowest shipping ever. I live one state away 139 miles to be exact and it takes on average 4-5 days to receive my items. I even pay for the extra shipping. I am done with purchasing from AquaCave. I will continue to purchase from Bulk Reef Supply as that company knows how to run a business always receive item the next day with free shipping.
Fast shipping great service and communication I love the new skimmer
(Translated by Google) It is an excellent establishment, very safe and they are very expert in what they do. Many thanks to Mr. Abel from the sales department. Without his help, I would not have been able to continue. They are excellent. It is an excellent establishment, very safe and they are very expert in what they do.

This is not a tropical fish store Google. This is a business. I walked it and there was nothing fish in there.
Quick shipping 4 days early and very well packed.
I love the size of dry rock i recieved. They go above and beyond to package each branching rock individually!! Super happy with my order !
One of my best online shopping and customer service experience with prompt shipping!
Great service. Know these guys for long time.
Great selection and reasonable prices. They ship orders very fast.
Quick shipping and product arrived in perfect condition!
Pieces were perfect! I asked for certain sizes and they delivered. Pieces required minimal rinsing and ready to go. Highly recommend!
Terrible customer service. Placed order thurs night w expedited delivery. Got email on Friday asking me to choose delivery option but none were given. I called Monday morning and was told person who answered phone was not in shipping and would have someone call me back. No call Monday, no call tues so I called Tuesday afternoon and was informed someone had purchased one of my items on Monday and was now out of stock- entire order cancelled. Stay away from this incompetence
Staff was was friendly
Super fast and great prices, along with a "rewards" program. A++!
On time delivery.
Probably the first time that my parcel has arrived quite quickly from the USA, Thanks
This company has always been reliable in sending me the items I order on-line (I've been buying from them for about two years). Great service. Thank you!
Everything arrived on time and in good shape. Will shop there again.
I bought a Trigger sump and a Tunze ATO from them online. The sump was packaged VERY well, they double boxed it with foam blocks between the boxes. Very impressed with the packing! This was also the only store I found on the internet that had Trigger sumps listed on sale and we all love a bargain! Both of my packages shipped lightning fast, I got them 2 days after ordering and shipping was free. I will absolutely be checking this place out the next time I need to order supplies for my reef tank. Thanks for being awesome!
Great store. Excellent service. It was delivered on time and as requested!
Thanks guys!!
Excellent service!
They have their shipping act together...perfect.
Great place good prices fast shipping.
Good variety of supplies, always have in stock.
Very good price and customer service was great!!!
Best price Ive seen, well-packed. Ive included AquaCave as one of my go-to sources for saltwater gear!
I placed an order and it's been a week now and I'm still waiting on a tracking number. I called a bunch of times and got the run around about drop shipping ect. They seem to be selling things that are never in stock. They take your money and then shop around and try to get it shipped. This is the second order, the first one I placed I had to call and got a run-around that time but at least the item was shipped within a couple of days. Stay away. Order from someone more reputable. I don't know if they disconnected their phone but as of today it no longer works. I will be placing a call to Amex
Bad customer service will never buy from here again. My wife gave me a Qeye camera for Christmas, and unfortunately I was not able to use it because internet service is terrible at home even with Wifi extender. First my wife called and spoke to someone and was told there no refund on electrical equipment, so then I called I spoke with Albert at Aquacave he told me the same thing. Which I would understand if the unit is used and it goes in saltwater. This is not the case at all I never used the unit but obviously have to open it see how it works, I mean by all means is a nice device but I can't use it. He said if I call the distributor Caralvue and I get an email stating that I can get a refund then OK. Well the email is there cause I sent them pictures of the unit and it states I can get approved for a refund. This was don Jan 4 of 2019 and I'm still waiting for it. I just called Albert today is Feb 8 and he said he is calling them to confirm and will do it. Mind you I have spoke to Aquacave 2 weeks ago and they have had the unit. This is complete garbage of business mind as well have just said no I would had sold the unit on ebay and avoided me the doing this email. That's why I prefer AMAZON buy it return and no questions ask I even rather pay more.
Very reliable ordered and came as expected would recommend !
Good price, received stand on said delivery date, have not opened box yet so I can not give a review of the stand that I've purchased. Will keep this site in mind for future items!
Awesome selection and GREAT prices! Speedy delivery!!!!
I need to contact because I only received 4 pieces of coral but ordered 5
They shipped our item very quickly. One piece was broken when it arrived. They answered my call, responded to the email with pictures of the broken part immediately and they shipped the replacement just as quickly!
Great service, excellent communications and prompt delivery, Thanks to all the people at AquaCave.
Added insurance for aquariums' heaters. Well worth the investment. First time doing buisness with AquaCave. Lightning fast transaction/shipping. Will keep on email speed dial.
Found what I was looking for quickly and it was delivered on time, with the exception that it was flooded around my house so it took an extra day to get here. Thanks again.
1 came broke in the package and leaked out as a result of the carrier, aquacave sent me a replacement free of charge and were very responsive and supportive with my issue. The heaters feel solid and good quality, seem to work real well, easy to adjust with a simple click and temperature seems to be pretty accurate.
One item was received damaged. I will be contacting AquaCave by phone.
I was pleasantly surprised to find a quality planted tank aquarium light for cheaper than any of my local fish stores as well as online. I was even lucky enough to find that the exact item i chose was on sale and the last one in stock. The purchasing process was quick and simple and they shipped out the item very quickly. The free shipping based on my purchase was a great added bonus that they offer on most items on their website. Item was received it brand new condition and was packaged well and had no damage. I would definitely shop here again; it doesn't hurt that they followed up on whether I received my order or not.
Great price, selection and fast shipping!!
Very satisfied with the service received my shipment 2 days after my order. Thank you
Order fulfilled very quickly and shipped. Item packaged well and great service. This is my first time purchasing from site and was bery pleased. Would recommend.
Super fast shipping. A+++ for aquacave
I have been out of the hobby for over ten years. I just recently got back into it with a nano tank for my son while he patiently awaits the 280 gallon build that I'm in the middle of now. I ordered all my equipment from Aquacave when I built my 150 gallon tank. Same great prompt service that I remember from a long time ago. I will continue to order products from them.
Thank you.
One of the best online stores for all your aquarium needs.
I received my Sicce SE 200 skimmer pump in a timely fashion but unfortunately it quit working within 30 minutes or so. The pump housing was almost too hot to touch. I’m currently in the process of boxing it back up to return it.
Nice product quick shipping great prices at aquacave i definitely will be going back for all my supplies and highly recommend them
My stuff arrived quickly and in perfect condition. Thanks!
Very poor customer service. It's taken over a month to be able to return a faulty piece of equipment and get a refund (still haven't gotten that). I would not purchase anything from them unless you are 100% sure of what you want, and that it will work for you.
I love the Finnex light. Great service and fast delivery.
Not the same piece I try to order.
Fast shipping good products
That was SO fast!!!
Shipping could have been faster but the order was perfect.
BAD TO DEAL WITH!!!!!!
GREAT COMPANY, GREAT PRODUCTS, GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. The aqua points are just an added bonus! A+++
If you place an order online, your billing and shipping addresses must be the same even though they have separate fields for them on the order form. This seems like an issue that should have been brought up during or prior to placing the order.
Quality items at competitive prices. Very fast and secure shipping. Very smooth transaction every time!
I’ll never buy from this place again. Gave me wrong information about a product. They’re just for a sale verses their customers. They have lack of listening skills you tell them one thing they said it will work then call them back after it arrives then says “ o no that will not work”. They don’t want to man up about the false information they gave and then want the customer to pay for return shipping that cost half of the refugium I bought. Be aware do not buy anything from this place.
With a wide selection of freshwater and saltwater products online and a quick delivery, it was as if I had gone to an actual store ! The package was not damaged, and was hand-delivered. It was a day later than USPS had predicted, but it was Labor Day weekend so I understand that it'd be busy. All in all it was a great place to make a purchase and I will be using it again in the future!
fast shipping and excellent quality
I talked with a representative name abell this guy was so helpful and kindhearted I would recommend aquacave just because of there experience with products and it seems like they had everything I needed as well with UNBEATABLE PRICES one thousand stars too this place
First time customer. I needed this one light and they had it for a good price. Ordered with no hassle and got my light pretty quickly shipped to me nicely packaged. Recommend this site based on my good experience.
I purchased a sump from Aquacave during the Black Friday sale 11/24/17 for close to $400. By Dec 1st i hadn't heard from them regarding shipping of my item. Now I know that Black Friday and cyber Monday are hectic for businesses but I spent my hard earned $$$ to pay for this thing. So I call and am informed that my order is on backorder. I would have respected if I had received an email to let me know, but I had to call. This was my first and last time shopping with aquacave because the first impression is a lasting one. I got the notification that my money was in their possession but not a curtacy email regarding my item being backordered for two or more weeks.
Shipped fast got it in 2 days!
I've always had a good experience ordering from Aqua Cave. Their prices are great and every time the packages have came quickly.
I ordered everything arrived as needed. Sooooo... Perfect.
Fast shipping, friendly Customer Service
Fast delivery, great quality product
Good variety and prices. Customer Service is responsive to inquries! I will shop there again.
