I know of eBay, Amazon, Liveaquaria, aquabid and Wet Spot. Any other online stores you can recommend? Thanks!

I've ordered most of my fish online and my favorite is Wet Spot. If ordering multiple fish their prices are reasonable even with shipping. Never had a problem with their fish and they have great customer service.

Depending on what you're looking for Msjinkzd is another very reliable source. She does have a stock list on her site but often has fish available not listed. If you ask for something she doesn't normally carry she'll suggest other sources.

I as well as other AA folks have had terrible experiences with Arizona Aquatic Gardens.
 
Almost forgot:

Bob's Tropical Plants An interesting selection, I never had a problem with fish or shrimp purchased from him. Only complaint is about communication.

There's also Alpha Pro Breeders and Aquatic Arts...you can check the General Retailers forum here as well, lots of helpful info.
 
I agree with the review of The Wet Spot. They have good customer service and I have always had good luck with them. I know other people who have as well. the only issue with an order from them that I know of (a friend got a pleco that didn't survive transit) was handled right away.
AquaBid and eBay are both just sales platforms. You cannot really say either is good or bad. I trust AquaBid more since people are pretty good at reviewing sellers there. With either, just look for a well rated seller and make sure to thoroughly read their policies about DOA fish and whatnot.
I have never used Live Aquaria. I am not impressed by their shipped cost, or their suggested tank sizes so I skip them. I know other people have had good luck though, so I am sure they are decent enough.
 
I've found some reliable sellers on AquaBid. LiveFins has some great quality Endler's; he has other livebearers and RCS at a decent price.

William Tricker doesn't stock fish but I've gotten great jungle vals from him. $13.99 including shipping for 12+ good sized, very healthy plants.
 
Browsed their site quite a few times, seems like they have decent prices. Have you ordered from them?

I haven't ordered from them, but I've seen videos with fish shipped from there and they're bright, colourful, ands super healthy. Plus they have a fish I REALLY want. I might order from them soon.

Ooooh, what are you looking for?
 
I've only ever ordered live fish online from LiveAquaria/Fosters&Smith. They were expensive but stood by their guarantee. 3 of 5 fish arrived DOA, they shipped out 3 more at no cost to me.
 
Never ordered fish on line but somethingphyishy looks interesting:fish1:

Just checked out their website...I'm not an expert but this definitely isn't a Bolivian ram :rolleyes:
