Problems with viewing liveaquaria. (Unsure where to put)

[Fitz19d]

Didnt seem like a vendor experience, and didnt seem like I could post in LA section.

When I view their site under a category of marine fish. I seem to only get a partial list. But if I for example google a fish not showing, especially saying "xxx trigger liveaquaria" I get a link to the LA page for it and shows up fine. If I click out to the category again it's a no show.

I know under specific fish you can click to show out of stock fish. But is there no place to toggle always show all fish? Kinda sucks trying to use them to browse for ideas on a stocking list. (For example I forgot about the cortez wrasse I used to have but saw it and made me remember.)

I'm not even sure how you're viewing their site. If you go to Liveaquaria.com then to Marine Fish tab at the top of the page, the next page is the full fish list.

Right, and if you click into those categories, you might notic3e certain fish missing.

So for example, click into lionfish. No Fu Macnhu, but google it, and theres a LA page for it.... (But not if you look under lionfish category without directly searching it.)

You Are not going mad, I have had the exact same thing, couldn't find a fish in there so googled it and up pops LA page for that fish as first hit. i presumed you can only see fish they have available from the main site and others are old archived pages or something like that.

Google archives pages that use to exist or does exist. It won't leave until google archives the site again. Might not be a link to something that there isn't availability on.

Not everything is listed in every category... Some fish, (IE Multifasciatus Angel) which are not as commonly available, may be listed under 'Collectors Corner', or are just hidden, till available...use their (LA) search button to see if certain fish are listed

Ah HA! Now I see what you're getting at. One recommendation is to go to Bluezoo's website and they have all fish listed at all times. I've too noticed that LA doesn't have all of them in the list, not sure where my head was when I first read this. Sometimes just need to get hit over the head with something to jar the old brain cells loose

I had wondered the same myself, but since I was getting them in a Google search, it didn't bother me too much.
Now that I am looking for a few specific items to finish my stocking list, I am checking more sites than just LA and BlueZoo.

My only problem is I was trying to find fish I forgot or didnt know about. I dont think it's fish they no longer carry. Stuff like a fumanchu I get is kinda not mainstream. But for example velvet damsel was missing and is back again.
