    Anyone know of any good sites that sell some nice corals? Cheap sites? Great coral sites? Or does anyone not recommends buying from on line and think I should go to a LFS for my purchases?

    Don't know where you are in NJ but Captain Nemo's is just off the PA turnpike in Norristown, about 20 minutes from NJ. Big place, lots of coral, good prices.

    Alot of times, it is hit or miss, with these pet shops. Price variances and selection often vary greatly!
    Your local pet is a great place to start as if you develop a good repore with them, often times you can receive price breaks and discounts, initial selection and special order consideration!
