    I didn't mention it because I didn't know if it was okay, but I ordered from Aquacon. The large cerith snails arriving at at least 1" arrived at 1/2". Wrong crabs received and no scissor tailed gobys. The med. fish I order is JUST BARELY a medium size. I'll bet a tape measure would prove them wrong! OH WELL....we live and learn. They were the only ones that had my trochus snails I've been wanting though. I have a large coral order that won't go to them now.

    In there only defense is they are have serious phone line troubles but not sure how that can effect their packing ! Someone couldn't tell the difference between a brown legged and a red legged crab ?:-/

    I'll put them in.........they are small too....and keep eyes open.

    Thanks.

    Well, they managed to charge my cc card the full amount plus what they shorted me and extra for shipping ! I've emailed them twice in the last two days and haven't heard from them yet. I contacted the cc company and explained what was going on. I said I'd pay for the crappy hermits but not at the wrong price or the items I didn't receive.

    I really hope their phone line trouble is the big issue here, but find it hard to believe.

    You should try liveaquaria.com

    I love them and they have a 14 day return policy- which is unheard of

    I've probably tried most of them out there over the last 10 years. I was wanting certian items and not tiny sized and they were the only ones with everything I wanted in stock.

    My favorite was always Flying Fish (I can mention it because they sold out a couple of years back and no longer exist) They'd pool orders for you let you know if more orders were in your area and made it so easy to order a couple of things and pay very little on frt. Then the big guys went and bought all my old suppliers and it just isn't as competitive online anymore.:-/
