I was wondering what people's experience was with purchasing livestock online? Do you recommend any certain companies? Have you had good luck with them?

I have purchased livestock online on many occasions. I recommend LiveAquaria. Excellent customer service!. Fish, inverts, and corals are doing great. Also you have a 14 day guarantee.

I've also had good luck with Petsolutions. I've yet to try MarineDepotLive. Sometime in the future maybe i will.

Just received another order from reefhotspot last week and very happy with them. Received very healthy fishes and excellent packaging. See thread on the Vendor Experience forum.

I had an awesome experiance from www.marinecenter.com

I got a Blue Assesor and a Blue Bar Pseudochromis.

Couldn't be happier with them.

I'm sure you can't go wrong with any of the other sites listed here though.

One site I have ordered from in http://sealifeflorida.com, have some good prices but not the biggest selection of fish, mostly just ones from florida.

I'm also trying to decide who to order from. LiveAquaria, ReefHotspot,marinecenter and Reefer Madness are the final four vendors I'm trying to decide from. Thanks to ppht for starting this thread. Bad news.. Its not making my choice any easier Good news... Looks like I can't go wrong.

i usually ordered on line. my best experience for fish is with phishybusiness, premium aquatics, JustRarefish, and Atlantic aquarium. you can find their links under sponsor. BTW these guys do great for corals too along with Reefer Madness...great guys.
