Where do you guys get your coral form online? Looking for a place that sells frags, and not outrageous shipping. I'm in NY. Any recommendations?
 
Near Kingston..... I usually go to poughkeepsie/fishkill for my coral, but it takes over an hour to get there....
 
I have got frags off a couple of different sites. The best that I have come across is from saltwaterfish.com. They were also having a sale on all ORA corals as well, not sure if it is still going on. But I love this site, frags are amazing.
 
Just bought a bunch of Zoas off of fragtankcorals.com and they were great pieces! I think orders over $70 are free? Well worth it to buy more than 1 or 2 frags at a time. The polyps were nicely seated and I get way more polyps per frag than I have with other vendors! I posted some pics of my zoas on a previous thread.
 
Try Atlantic Sea Farms featuring ricordia, zoanthids, palyothoa, LPS, SPS.. he has some really nice frags at a great cost, and he ships in small bags to cut down on weight and save you cash. I'm lucky enough I can go to his retail store. I created a mailorder account and estimate shipping looks to only be about $12.

Here's some stuff I got from him, all of which is doing great (although I did break the birdsnest tonight scrubbing algae. It seems to be doing okay.)

Eagle eye zoas - $20

Acan frag (3 heads) - $15

ORA green birdsnest - $15

All these pics were taken shortly after I got them and I can see definite growth in the birdsnest and eagle eyes. I have a 4th head on the acan as well. All were purchased September 1.
