Trust & ratings

Reputation is everything.

TankTrim doesn't hold your money or ship your shrimp. We connect hobbyists, and ratings show you who to trust.
⭐

Two-way ratings

Buyers rate sellers and sellers rate buyers after every trade. Flaky no-shows and dead-on-arrival shipments affect a profile just as much as great trades do.

Trade-safe tips

  • Meet in public

    Fish stores, cafés and club meetings are great places to hand off.

  • Check the weather

    Shipping livestock? Avoid heat waves and freezes, and use heat or cold packs.

  • Quarantine & dip

    Inspect new plants and livestock for pests, snails and algae before adding them.

  • Talk first

    Agree on quantity, condition, price and timing in DMs before anyone travels or ships.

  • Know your local rules

    Some regions ban certain plants and animals. Check before you post or trade.

  • Rate honestly

    Fair, specific reviews help everyone, including the next person.
