    They sell bubble tips at petco for 20 each, and percs for ~18 each at my local Petco...they could almost buy from Petco at retail prices and make that mark when they sell it lol.

    This is really cool. There's a LFS, well in a town near mine, it's actually in Findlay, OH. It's called "Jack's Aquarium & Pets". I'm not sure on their pricing on livestock, but this is similar for equipment. All the tanks they sell are only $1 per gallon. Equipment is goo pricing too. It maybe a chain, I'm not sure. If it is, there are only a few of them. I do know they have another store location in Defiance, OH.

    I've tried to do some research on these guys. Sounds like they don't hold their livestock very long from the whole saler and they ship out before checking to see if the fish is a good specimen. Their order sheet even kinda looks like one from a wholesaler. Could explain the really low prices.

    Wish we had some more info on this store or anyone else with experience ordering from them.

    Still might be worth a shot ordering from them.

    Trust me everything about this place is grade A, all of the specimen I got and have heard from other people they arrive perfectly healthy and yes you might get variable sizes etc but if you specifically ask for a 4 inch coral or I want this size fish they will accommodate make sure you get it not to mention they have a 3 day guarantee.

    i checked out the webpage, it needs work. first off there is no bussines addrees, this is requried for credit card purposes to protect the buyer,,, i wasted my time clicking on every thing and couln't find it, (very disorganised,) under the contact tab,and the about us tab, there should be the full bussiness address and phone number. no addrees can be found on the site.
    second i looked at the price list and at the bottom it said you only take cash or check. on the home page it show the paypal and credit card emblems.? very confusing information is lacking or all over the place. shipping to all 50 states ? this would make anyone very skiddish about dealing with the company/bussiness. as i do.
    dont take this the wrong way the home page desin it's self looks ok. but i dont know if you or someone else built or maintains it. if they maintane it maybe a good talking to would be in order. you have a good bussiness plan good prices means alot of sale and repeat sales means more money. and we need someone who has good prices and customer service. i dont me to come off as being harsh just trying to point out how i felt about visiting your web page. that's very confused and a little worried. maybe someone who lives close buy this bussiness can buy something and then talk to the owner, i would drive there and pic up a order if i knew the address
    good luck on your bussiness and i do hope to deal with you in the future.
