Group Order from Bluezoo...

Why cant we all just get along?

I bet Emerald Bay can come close to, if not beat the prices at bluezoo. I have been searching on their website, and most of the prices are not incredibly low.

I'd be happy to give Sean the chance to make the sale. It seems it is a question of availability but if we give him a wish list maybe he can fill it.

I always thought about bringin' that up. The LFS do alot, give 10% off, host meetings, donate stuff for meetings and frag swap, give a higher % off at meeting. I wondered, even though they sale snails, fish, etc. if they would do group orders. I know the reeftopia orders can get big. I remember AC did do a IO salt order awhile back, and they didnt even cary IO at the time. Just a thought.

You might be surprised what they can get in for you. On an individual basis, they may not be as quick because they have so many other things to worry about, so one extra fish gets lost in the shuffle, but if you are persistent, you can usually get them to order whatever you want. Thye are tied to certain availability lists, but will look around for you if they knwo you want something. Sean checked with a njumber of suppliers when we were hunting for a pair of lineatus wrasses for the swap livestock grand prize. It didn't work out for us, but he tried everything he could... Even if you pay a little more, you can see the fish before you buy it and get them to hold it to make sure it is healthy before taking it home (can't do that with OFS). You might have to put down a deposit on a special (i.e., expensive) fish, but I'd bet both stores would work with you. Seems like the Critter even had a mystery wrasse for like $160 once. You don't find them for under $200 very often on line (especially with shipping, etc.).
