are there any decent online vendors for fish?

[jasonkola]

I was looking arround town today and two of the only decent places to buy fish had went out of business. so I am now considering buying online but am a little hesitant to buy without being able to check the fish out to see if it is healthy and vibrant. dose any one know of any good online supplier (preferably in western US)

I have ordered 10 fish from Liveaquaria. All arrived in great condition, acclimated and began eating immediately. And they're on the West coast.

as far as I know Liveaquaria is in Wisconsin. I think most of there stuff ships from there. Sometimes I will order a few things and half of it will ship from CA though. I would call them to make sure. The shipping is a flat rate 29.99 also.

Morgan Lidster at Inland Aquatics always has some nice fish. He always quarantines for a period on time so his fish live. Located in Indiana.

I've also had excellent luck with Live Aquaria. Their replacement policy is also very good.

Has anyone tried saltwaterfish.com?

LiveAquaria is the best I know of.

Yes Liveaquaria is based in Wisconsin, but all their fish are shipped from Wholesalers in Los Angeles. Only there aquacultured corals are shipped from Wisconsin.

ahh ok , I usually order a little of both when I order, the cool thing is I only pay 1 shipping charge.

I bought 3 tangs from saltwaterfish and all arrived healthy and eating. I was very happy with the results and free shipping.
