The height of my tank read 25cm. I had 28cm space so 25cm would have been ideal. However, bit misleading, the height is 31cm in total. Wish the write-up had stayed that. My tank isn't where I wanted it to go, however, I'm very pleased with the quality, the day/night light is fantastic, night light sends my fish to sleep. The filter is really quiet, a nice, relaxing background sound. The lid is good, the little lift up part for easy feeding. My Brother took the heater as he keeps tropical, so yep, very happy. Speedy delivery, well packaged.
I purchased a filter that did not work, this was not the 1st filter of this kind I had purchased from Pro Shrimp, so I knew how to use it, however, when switched on nothing happened, tried 3 different outlets (then plugged in my phone to each to ensure the outlets were working) and tried the filter 5 times and nothing. I returned the filter at my own expense and was told it worked fine, they tried it without the filter cartridge, so who knows if the cartridge was faulty and rendered the product dead, I dont know, but it took a few emails in order to get a refund, I also purcased bio granules for this filter and returned them as they were useless without the filter but a refund was never mentioned for these or my postage cost back, despite sending proof of cost. I am out of pocket for £30 and will only get £19.99 back. Not the best experience with this company.
Clear description of products, excellent plants, well-packaged and sent very quickly.

Changed the order and sent without communication
I bought some tropica soil, but received dennerle. The slip in the box said dennerle too … which is not what was ordered. So clearly they changed it as tropica was also then out of stock.
I have not returned due to the hassle and others over on UKAPS forum saying it is likely the same thing overall. But that’s not the point. I wanted a particular product… hence paying money for it. To then just shrug shoulders, change the order and send it without any discussion is unprofessional.
Sadly this is my second bad experience with this store. Even being a little cheaper won’t get my business next time now.

Highly Disappointed
Ordered, plants arrived and were very damaged and just shoved in a bag not well packaged.
I contacted customer service the same day and was asked to send pics and they would refund or resend.
I heard nothing back then got an invoice for another order of plants at £0 cost out of the blue. I sent a message back saying I would like a refund as i don't have room for any more plants as I purchased new ones when the other come damaged from else where.
I have had no response and no refund.
Highly disappointed!

1of the plants I received was appalling and went in the bin as I didn’t want to pay postage to send it back, the other plant was ok, wouldn’t order plants again from them

Quality products.
Great prices
Very good delivery deal.
Wide & diverse range of products.
Excellent shrimp & snails
Do better - customer advice - I have emailed various questions for advice on products you sell. Example shrimps. But never had any feedback. Whereas I have received excellent advice from alternative online companies I've used. But I am otherwise very pleased with Pro-shrimp.

Charge for delivery but too slow!
Unfortunately, in this age of superb delivery from Amazon, like next day and generally free, a lot of these online companies are just not up to matching that sort of service. My belief is that if companies charge for delivery, it had better be good but unfortunately most companies, Pro-Shrimp don't live up to that standard. Delivery is too slow.

Good and Bad…
This was my first time using ProShrimp, and I bought 3 motherplants.
2 were fantastic, but the third was very tired, didn’t have many leaves, and had been seemingly damaged in transit, as one of the leaves was snapped off.
Would I use them again?
Yes, I probably would, but wouldn’t let it slide if I got a below-average plant next time.

always good healthy plants and the wide range provides plenty of choice.
Delivery is usually quick,and well packed.
The trouble is the post office parcel can sometimes be delayed so it is good that the parcel is so well packed.

Ordered some aquarium plants. Great products however packaging had broken on one out of four sealed containers as they stacked on top of each other. I've planted them and time will tell

Nice range of products
Nice wide range of products at good prices and fast delivery but I would not recommend getting live plants from here as one of the plants that I got was delivered half dead.

Quick turn around and price. Could have been in slightly better condition on arrival. But have had very little melt back so the fish are pleased .
