Salty Underground

Experiencia fantástica: came in looking for aiptasia, majanos, and asterinas and they gave me those + more pests. they also have a really cool berghia farm

Experiencia fantástica: I ordered a cuc. Arrived the next day. I only acclimated in the bags for temperature. Snails and crabs are thriving one week later. Two have molted. I do drop an algae wafer, and blue legs all sky dive off the highest rocks. Like a dog, to get the food, lol. My favorite store in the Midwest. Update: 3 months later. The yellow clown goby I ordered. Acclimated well and eventually feed on flakes. Depleted some pods. He greets you at the glass, lol.

Experiencia fantástica: Great salt water reef store, staff is extremely helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place, great staff. Prices on the site cover a wide range - sometimes high, sometimes unbelievably low. I like to watch for a good deal and then drop by to pick it up to save on shipping. Everything I've bought was always healthy.

Experiencia fantástica: The owner is totally amazing! Great personality and very kind. My husband and I visit here a few times and each visit was nice. The staff is kind, the store is neat and always has a unique selection of fish. The prices are reasonable on some fish. Others are expensive but that's to be expected for saltwater fish. The best part is the owner being down to earth and easy to talk to. Answers questions and is eagered to help. Hope he stays in buisiness for a long time! I learn more things about saltwater each time I visit this buisiness. Great guy.

Experiencia negativa: Went to the shop in stl, open sign but door was locked. Ordered online later, website says next day air shipping paid 50 bucks for shipping (cost more than the product), 4 or 5 days later my order hadn't shipped, wasn't gonna get shipped either til the following Monday. 2 stars cuz they did give me a refund. Disappointed because they seemed like a good shop but im not gonna pay more for shipping just to have to wait twice as long as competitors, don't waste your time.

Experiencia fantástica: Great selection and prices, knowledgeable and friendly staff!

Experiencia fantástica: Got a bunch of help picking out my first corals here during their half off sale. Wow what an affordable place !

Experiencia negativa: Store deleted items from my shipment. Only informed me the night before shipment. I had no opportunity to cancel or approve the redacted items. Started email with Good morning at 545 pm? When inquiring of why the items went out of stock after being purchased, they refunded me an said have a nice day. The items the were deleted were the premise for the order to begin with...... Save yourself the headache order from someone else. Totally unprofessional.

Experiencia fantástica: This place is great! Fantastic selection, and beautiful facility. Dealt with two employees and they were both personable and very helpful to a “new guy”.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been buying from here on the internet for over a year, and every purchase has been great. Their staff is very helpful if you have a question or need to change something. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I placed an order for fish, shrimp and nudis and everything arrived in great condition. Prices were fantastic and overall am very pleased. Will absolutely be buying from them again and would recommend anyone else do the same!

Experiencia fantástica: very happy. ordered some nudi's for my aptasia problem. all arrived healthy and alive. also ordered a red stick Gorgonia, it is a very nice piece. very happy with saltyunderground.com. my new go to for nudi's. best price Ive found for them too.

Experiencia fantástica: Very reasonable prices with good quality of stock, keep it up buddy..

Experiencia fantástica: Went in to look around sense we are deciding on getting a tank just unsure at we want to put in it. Their stock is amazing! Cute star fish, pufferfish, and beautiful coral and a ton more. It's all so beautiful and well taken care of. You can definitely tell how much passion they have in their work. Who I believe is the owner of the store is EXTREMELY knowledgeable and very kind. She answered all of our questions and showed us examples of everything. We will definitely be coming back here to either look at what amazing things they get in or hopefully to get items for our tank. Highly recommend to those who have salt water aquariums

Experiencia fantástica: The owner here is great, the fish are healthy, and the prices can't be beat. Definitely recommend anyone in the saltwater fish hobby stopping by to check it out.

Experiencia fantástica: Purchased a Naso tang and Moorish Idol. Both fish arrived safely, well-packaged, healthy are now both ferocious eaters. Thanks again for the excellent customer service!

Experiencia fantástica: Great service!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: 10 stars. Great fish. Definitely recommend them. And customer service is amazing. Thank you so much

Experiencia fantástica: Very responsive at first until they SENT ME THE WRONG FISH. Stop responding and ghosting me! Terrible service ! They fixed the problem. I’m satisfied! Fish I ordered was both healthy

Experiencia fantástica: Super sweet & very helpful!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome shopping experience, thanks guys

Experiencia fantástica: One of the few places selling Berghia Nudibranchs online. Great prices and the shipment came with no casualties to IL in the middle of December. Highly Recommend! Updating review as just placed another order with Salty Underground, this time an Anemone and Maxima clam. no issues with shipping and the livestock arrived alive and acclimated great!

Experiencia fantástica: Always very helpful. Prices are great and I love their sales! Love that they quarantine all the fish before selling them. Wish they had more walk in hours.

Experiencia fantástica: I received my small order of corals, an invert and a fish right on time, all were looking good and healthy upon opening them. Great communication during the whole process! Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: I have had no issues. All the corals I have bought, I have been very satisfied with them. The one time I had an interaction with the customer service rep, they took care of my issue. I will continue ordering from Salty Underground.

Experiencia negativa: Did a large order of B. Nudibranch, shipping was fine and fast but when they showed up out of 25 maybe 2 were moving. After over 30 minutes of drip acclimation still no movement. Chatted with customer service on line. They had very little interest in helping. Send them a pic as they requested, was not and am still not looking for a refund, and he just said they look fine. How can you tell from a still picture? The only thing that would tell them it was bad apparently is brown water or missing legs. So unless they show up like that its business as usual. Service is terrible and will not return.

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you Salty Underground for insuring I received such healthy animals. They are all doing great.

Experiencia fantástica: Your customer service representatives are the best!! Megan, Cynthia are very responsive. The yasha gobies arrived alive and well. Thank you for a great shipment.! Highly recommend Salty Underground for all of your marine life. David E

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience !!! My corals look great and packed very well. Customer service by Megan was outstanding. Would highly recommend .

Experiencia fantástica: Great communication and customer service. I ordered these and had them in my hand 20 hours later. The berghia were all alive and well and they even threw in an extra! Highly recommended and will definitely order from Salty again.

Experiencia negativa: Prices so high you'll faint. Just like the other stores. No online discounts just full triple boat retail. Someone's gotta pay for the 60,000 boat and 500,00 house it will be you

Experiencia fantástica: Very knowledgeable and very helpful. Deliveries are always in excellent condition and on time. If delayed for weather or because you are unable to take it at the moment; they will do everything they can to help meet your needs. Would give 10 stars if I could.

Experiencia fantástica: I ordered Berghia nudibranchs from them and they arrived in less than 24 hours to my apartment, I can't express how impressed I'am with how prompt they deliver. All the nudibranchs arrived healthy and the heat pack was working great. Will definitely recommend friends to buy from Salty Underground.

Experiencia fantástica: I am a repeat customer of Salty Underground. They have been very consistent with their quality, customer service and packaging. They are always extremely helpful. I love their coral. The prices are affordable. I get exactly what I see on their site. I'd recommend them to anyone in need of corals, snails and etc... I have not purchased fish from them yet. When I do I will update my review.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place great people only place to buy coral

Experiencia negativa: I ordered four Berghia Nudibranchs and a frag of Zoanthids, totaling about $95. The order arrived and I acclimated very slowly to ensure a safe transport. Everything seemed to be going smoothly, except for the frag being extremely small. It has been almost a month and there is absolutely no improvement with the aptasia and I do not think any of the slugs survived. We have tried to get in contact with the company, but there has been no reply or answer. Everything was a complete waste of money, but to not even hear from the company is absolutely ridiculous.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome selection

Experiencia fantástica: Great customer service. Ordered Nudibranchs and an acan. Unfortunately they were delivered on the coldest day of the year and FedEx was late. The poor acan couldn’t recover. I was promptly given credit. I had never gotten anything like Nudibranchs so I had lots of questions, they were great in getting back to me. They were all live and well. I will definitely order from them again.

Experiencia fantástica: Good prices, and great staff,

Experiencia fantástica: Great owner and good selection.

Experiencia fantástica: great place to get your corals

Experiencia fantástica: Great place I didn't know anything about saltwater tanks and they have been very helpful. Highly recommend them for your saltwater needs.

Experiencia negativa: Three men from The Salty Underground just walked into our local pet store and demanded we take their bucket of yellow lab convicts. When we told them it's against company policy they asked where our bathroom was and threatened to flush them in our toilet. When we refused to let them do so one of the men rudely said "we will just dump them outside" and walked out of the store. They dumped some of the water out on our sidewalk but didn't dump the fish. Then they got into what I assume is the company car since it is screen wrapped with marine fish and has your company name on both sides. I know nothing of the quality of your aquarium cleaning services, but I am very unhappy with the quality of your employees. Threatening to dump fish and attempting to fish on a store side walk is unacceptable.

Experiencia fantástica: Salty underground is amazing google kinda messed up there are no store hours it is not open to the public its for online orders the owners are completely nice and awesome!!
