In search of....

[divecj5]

Although i have been on RC now for a couple of months, this is my first time making my way to the Zoa forum. Not sure what took me so long since I have become pretty fanatical learning about these amazing corals.

I am getting ready to setup my 55 gallon tank actually this weekend after about a year of acquiring equip and doing research in general. Although I am not planning on keeping any corals in the real near future, I wanted to start looking around at possibly online places selling zoas.

I know that they majority of you are able to trade and swap zoa frags locally and within clubs, I don't have that luxury. Although it appears that my LFS can get in some pretty decent zoas, I wanted to know if you all could suggest some online vendors that sell the nicer, more vibrant zoas.

Any comments and suggestions are great and can't wait to get some zoas in the future. By the way, great forum.

Check out some of our sponsors. The usually have a nice selection. Dr. Mac has some nice frags at reasonable prices.

Any other suggestions? and/or experiences with different vendors?

some of my best zoas have come from other reefers here on rc.

ultimatefrags.com has some awesome stuff right now, but for a premium. The owner's a great guy though...

www.coralfanatics.com and www.purecaptive.com are my favorite sites for zoas. Best of luck

Thanks for all the links....will have to do some "shopping" around. There are just so many choices out there that it's hard to pick out one to start off with.

Can you all suggest maybe a good one that's pretty resilient and pretty easy to care for?

I definately second the Dr. Mac (www.pacificeastaquaculture.com) suggestion. He and his staff are good people and his stuff is really nice.

Thanks for all the great links. Will definitely have to save ALL those when I'm getting to a point where I want to purchase my first zoos. There are just so many different varieties, colors, etc. that it's mind blowing. I'm just amazed what nature produces, I guess that's why I"m in this hobby

WOW...just checked out what Dr. Mac has and the WYSIWYG zoos look incredible. Definitely looks to be an option. Thanks again.
