    I have had BAD experiences with saltwaterfish.com and Mr.coral, check out the sponsors, ive also had good luck with drfostersmith and live aquaria.

    I've never ordered from online, but I've read/heard that Live Aquaria is really good. I use their website all the time for fish info, and I've ordered from their parent company, Dr. Fosters and Smith with only good results.

    If you use any online store please share which one and your experience!

    TERRIBLE experience with saltwaterfish.com, ended up having to contact my credit card company. The thread is on here somewhere if you search for it!

    I've never ordered fish, but i've ordered coral from vividaquariums.com (2x), cherrycorals.com and tbaquatics.com. I've had very good luck with all 3, although cherry corals is expensive IMO.
