DSB Critters

I want to seed my DSB with some critters like bristle worms, bristle stars and such, but do not know where I can get that stuff. I tried ordering 5lbs of rock bottom crude from PA, but it was empty of life except for one tiny little snail. I'm hesitant of ordering anything online because I'm afraid of it arriving DOA. Anyone have any suggestions on getting these critters?

Thanks

See if a local reefer can let you borrow one of their rocks. Keep it in your tank for a week or so and then give it back. They will wander at night and find a new home in your tank.

BTR in Schaumburg sells live sand with a lot of critters in it I think it's $5 a lb.
