    +1, if you have something very particular your looking for email/call BoB. He'll get you taken care of. His quarentine procedures are outstanding & i've even gotten pictures of the exact livestock to ok before shipping.




    I've also shopped with liveaquaria and recommend them.

    John over at reefcleaners is the absolutely only place I buy CuC's & macro's from, and he has some nice dry rock.

    I've bought dry rock & sand from marcorocks & dry rock and supplies BRS, both highly recommended. Watch on here for BRS group buys at discounted prices.

    aquacave like mentioned above is great prices & well packaged light bulbs.

    coral there are alot of places. I thank reef-a-holic for alot of the stocking a good portion of my tanks.

    there are also alot of ebay sellers that are a good place to start for new hobbyists, just be sure to read the shipping costs & feedback scores.



    on the downside I cant say I recommend aquaCON. Check thier BBB rating it speaks for very clearly, I havent shopped with them.

    i also dont recommend saltwaterfish.com. I've placed 2 orders with them, both had DoA's, and it was reasonable season weather. They give you store credit that can only be used on your next order of $60 or more (before shipping), and its only good for so long.

    what are you looking to purchase?

    Dry goods - buld reef supply

    Fish - live aquaria; reefs2go; bluezooaquatics.com (only places i've purchased fish. Not one fish DOA, all disease free and all still living.
    BlueZoo has the lowest free shipping at only $140 and I love the "care package" you get with each order.
    Reefs2go shipping is very cheap if you live in Florida.
    http://www.liveaquaria.com/ is the top of the line, but also fairly expensive. Love the diver's den

    Corals - everyone has their favorite sites. There are many good ones.

    Inverts (clean up crew) - without a doubt: reefcleaners.org
