Absolute scam and trash company
March 31, 2021

This company is absolute trash and garbage. They stole $140 and didn't send me my order. I ordered two flood guardian monitors. They throw their hands in the air and straight up take your money and f*** you

Do not order from them ever. There are many other better suppliers.

Ordering online is easy, but I typically call in to place my orders because their staff is so nice and will usually tell you if there is a coupon you can use or something new I might be interested in based on my order history. I still shop at my local fish store for livestock, but that's about it. MarineDepot.com has all my aquarium supply business and I would highly recommend them, especially to new hobbyists just getting their fins wet. They will help you succeed!

Purchased their MAX E - 260 fish tank from their site and I am very impressed of the quality of the material used on this aquarium. The 10 gallon tank made it a perfect home for my fishes. Thank you so much!

To keep this short and readable I'll leave out the details. I've been a Marine Depot customer for about 4 years. Ok so here's the recent issue. Today my shipment was due to be delivered, I checked the tracking and it showed that it was delivered this morning I called marine depot, and was told to purchase another item and that once FedEx and marine depot investigated the issue they would then refund my money Depending on The findings.

If you think you are happy with your purchase, be sure to make a mistake. Because it has neither warranty nor warranty, it accepts unused packages, and customer satisfaction is not important. There is no item there and the office is empty and only accept the order and there is no commitment

Delivery service is awful. Ordered item on Tuesday paid extra for 5 business day delivery. Item did not show tried to cancel on 6th day. Got told could not item was shipped. Received shipment notification on 7th business day. Also received notice shipment was stuck in Atlanta due to weather. Not blaming them for weather but why did I pay extra for early delivery? Item still in warehouse in Atlanta but cannot be cancelled?

So I buy a package and they send me just one of the items, I call to see what happen, they told me that they make a mistake and they will found out what happen. I wait the 2 days and I call back, so they say they where so busy that's the reason why they didn't reply me, we went back and forward whit the emails, because they want me to return the item so they can fix their warehouse and they offer me a 10$ store credit for my 330$ order, they offer me a 10$. At last "the supervisor" call me they gonna send me all the items next week (this is the 2 week I'm waiting), they ask me if I whant somthing else, he make it look that Im trying to have free items and thats not the case, I told him i just want my $#*!.
I'm done whit this company they don't know how to take care of their costumers.

Their 60 return policy only applies to some items. Bought a skimmer and it was just simply to large to fit in my tank sump. When I went to exercise the "60 day return policy" I was given a pop up of any issues with this item must be taken care of by the manufacturer. IT'S UNUSED, AND STILL IN ALL THE ORIGINAL PACKAGING! Do yourself a favor and buy from foster and Smith, lfs, or Amazon even. Waiting on hold was the only way to get the return done. At least the person I spoke with was helpful and polite. He finally got the return process taken care of, and even had some helpful advice.
