Thank you so much Eddie,I love the Red Zebra food products!!!Great job packing and shiping live Cichlids.They were very healthy upon arrival.This is the best mail order experience I've ever had!!!

I recently returned from a 9 day collecting trip organized by Eddie. The trip was great and I can't recommend Eddie enough. I returned with some great fish and some even better memories.

Fast service - received fish in good condition. Eddie called and checked up on them. Very good company to deal with.

This was my first time using an online retailer and I was very hesitant to do so. However, Eddie at Bluegrass Cichlids went above and beyond my expectations for any retailer either local or online. He was friendly, helpful and prompt in his correspondance. I could not be happier. The fish arrived today and were well packed and in excellent health. Once again, I could not be happier with the service and livestock I received and I will not hesitate to use Bluegrass Cichlids for all my future livestock orders.

I have had bad experiences buying fish online but Bluegrass Cichlids exceeded my expectations. I received beautiful, healthy stock that are thriving. Eddie gave me great communication via emails and even followed up a few days after arrival to make sure everything was going well and that I was happy with my purchase. I highly recommend this retailer.

After a couple of emails Eddie welcome me right into his home and I have seen his nop notch set up and stock. Great fish and I would buy from him again. Very helpful. I was at his house about 2 hours and never felt like I was being rushed out the door. Great guy, great fish!

If you are the type that reads these reveiws, you need to disregard any of the negative ones on eddie. he is so knowlegable in the hobby and he is willing to offer it without hesitation. his stock is A-1 and he is without a doubt the one i will do all of my buisness with. i just thank the lord that he is in driving range of me but i would not worry if i had to conduct buisness with him through shipping...thanks so much eddie, my aquiaum could win an award thanks to you!!

All I can say is wow. Eddie welcomed me in his home and fishery after only a few brief emails and a few brief phone calls. This man knows his stuff. There wasn't a question or scenario he couldn't answer for me today. His stock is of top notch! I have seen his stock first hand. I give Bluegrass Cichlids an A++ across the boards. They will for sure being hearing and seeing alot of me now. Keep up the great service and quality stock Bluegrass Cichlids.

I came across Bluegrass Cichlids on Ebay. Then I visited the Bluegrass Cichlid website and contacted Eddie. This was about three years ago when I was getting into the hobby. Eddie was extremely helpful with the tank setups, fish selections, maintenance. Over the years I have bought fish from Eddie on numerous occasions. I haven't had any of them die within the first month of purchase. The quality of the fish has being extremely good. The fish food he sells, is also of great quality. It brings out the colors of the fish. Over the years Eddie has being extremly friendly and accomodating to my hobby. Because of this pleasant experience, my collection includes 125G, 55G, 29G tanks with various different varities. Keep up the good work and look forward to doing business for years to come

I just had the pleasure of spending nine days with Eddie Martin during a fish collecting trip to Mexico. I have purchased fish from Eddie many times before, but it wasn't until I was able to spend some quality time with him that I fully appreciated his dedication to the hobby and the people who enjoy it. The guy is four stars solid gold. Any stock I have ever received has been top shelf and correctly identifed. What I appreciated most was his service after the fact...checking on the condition and health of the fish long after the sale. I would highly recommend anyone who is son inclined to utilize his services. You won't be disappointed.

this was the first time I've ever bought fish online. i was very surprised with how great the fish looked after shipping. the fish were eating and looking good in about 3 hrs. Eddie was great to deal with, and those mpimbwes are beautiful. i would definitly recommend this company.

I've know Eddie for a number of years, he has great customer service and good quailty stock, he's friendly and fair in all the dealings I have had with him. I'm very pleased with the way he conducts his buisness, good stock, fast shiping and a good guarantee. Can't beat that!

just wanted to say thankyou for all the great help you have been. my 240 is incredible,all the fish are awesome! thanks for the wild caught nimpinways,the whole colony is healthy and happy!

Eddie, Just wanted to thank you for finding those fine F.Karilani they came in perfect and are coloring up a little more everyday,as well as those Eureka Reds, man the colors just knock everyones eyes out. I also really appreciate you getting those wild caught F.Nimpinways we didn't loose a single one of the 20 they are doing great. You are THE MAN!!!!

Edit: So when i ordered my fish i was very excited to say the least, all of these great reviews. Whats the chance of being screwed, low. I ordered 8 of Rusties, Hongi, Afra, and a peacock. The rusties came in, they were fine no problem with them at all. The male hongi's i received 1 has proper barring, and both have different coloration. Possibly from two different groups a SRT and a regular hongi with a yellow cap. The one with the yellow cap has about 10 bars that are very visible, a very undesirable trait and should be a breeding cull. Then my afra's, was the main factor in buying from this store. Ended up with 5 left 4 males 1 female, nobodies fault unlucky. Two of the males also had extra barring and blending, again should have been culled. One afra is gorgeous, what i expected from this store. The peacock i love, great orange color not what i expected from the provided pictures but im happy with him. The kicker here is that somehow a perlmutt got added into the afra bag. No a clue how that ended up in my box o fish.

They were packed well, no DOA fish. I was treated with excellent customer service which begs the question, how did my order get #%$& up this bad. Quality control, i realize that the owner can't be there every day. But there should be trust worthy people to leave your business to when your unavailable. My final thought is ask the owner to personally handle your order to ensure its correct and quality fish.
