Anyone buy fish online?
Found a few store's online that sell some fish for a really good price.. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this? Maybe could direct me to a website they have had a good experience with?

I purchase many hard to find species from AquaBid.com while the more common ones I get at my LFS.

I have also used aquabid for fish I can't find here at home. And I have ordered a couple goldfish from on line auctions.

The only prob with buying online to save a few dollars is it ends up costing more because of shipping.

Hands down would be liveaquaria. Their customer service is second to none in this hobby.

Aquabid
You can find some great buys on aquabid if your careful with your seller selection. I just recently ordered 10 very unique baby Angelfish each of a different variety and the seller threw in 4 albino bristlenose plecos. All for $56 dollars delivered. Same fish at liveaquaria.com would have cost almost $200.00.

You can also try www.reefs2go.com they are the best on eBay for online and LiveStock.
I bought my goby & pistol shrimp from them and it worked out real good.

What are some reliable sellers on Aquabid.com? On the same note, what are some sellers to stay away from?
