I have spotted them selling the electric blue molly online, but it seems like they need a transhipper.
Since i have never bought fish across countries, is there a way to tell whether they are legit company or not?
Thanks.

I've never heard of them so take this comment with a grain of salt:

It sounds like some people have had a good experience but a lot will also depend on where you live (country); as they are located in indonesia things can get really messy with importation of fishes from other country esp if you are not a commercial business and the last thing you want is for your live fish to be held up for 3 months by customs.

Now i have actually purchased plants from another company in Indonesia (i'm in usa) and they did have a fairly smooth process though it did take a couple of days to clear customs.

So i would start by checking your countries rules around importing fishes or contact the store and check if they will have problems shipping through customs.

However i will note that the lower your fish cost the more expensive the overhead will be as a % of the total cost. What I am trying to say here is that unless your order is large the cost of shipping and customs is quite substantial.
