I've heard good things about keyscritters.com, but I've never dealt with them and it's been a while since I've looked into it.

I purchased from reefcleaners.org as well. They got the stuff to me as expected. Order a few more than you normally would though as when they say the stuff is small they mean it. Not a bad thing as they will grow but I didn't think they were that small. They arrived alive and well using the express shipping. The few that did pass in the trip they will refund if you use express shipping...

Great people to work with and highly recommended.

From experience stay away from the limpets as they like to fall off the glass and dissapear... the Nassarious vibex are cool. They are fast too...

I buy from Keyscritters. They are very fair and pricing is awesome!It may be a good idea to post in a local forum and do a group buy

Always have had good success with http://reeftopia.com/ for purchasing large quantities / an entire CUC

Liveaquatics (DocF&S) and Saltwaterfish have been great for me!

Its much easier if you find a lfs so you don't have to pay for the insane shipping, and you don't have to worry about having your package being thrown around. Personally, I'm going to stop buying live creatures online, unless they are really unseen in the area. My lfs orders directly from ORA, they get good deals from them.

Try finding a good lfs, and you'll save a bunch of money on shipping, and you get to see what you are buying.

must be nice to live in FL. Our LFS are really expensive and its cheaper to order on line.

 

[Maxi]

Yes it is nice. lol.

Eitherway, you are paying more for the shipping than you are paying for the fish or critter that you are buying. That is ridiculous. With the shipping money, you could buy it at your lfs.

i live in a 1 horse town( and that horse has 3 broken legs and 1 badly crippled leg) and we have a grand total of 2 lfs that carry saltwater fish and saltwater fish supplies .. out of the 2 one is is actually worse than not having a second store and the other is good knowledge wise but limited in selection...then the other options we have for any sort of fish supplies is walmart and a discount pet store that has 1/4 of 1 side of 1 isle of wally world or lower quality of fish supplies and no fish so i can order on line or drive 2 hours south or 2.5 hours north to an area with some fish store options
