Liveaquaria is a great option
There's a fine line between owning your tank, and having your tank own you!_________________________________________
120G SCA starfire, tunze 1073.02 return pump, Geisemann reflexx 4xT5, 2x panorama pro LED strips, 2x Vortech MP 20's, 40g sump w/ fuge.
Nyaquatics or bluezoo as well.
I have ordered from both with success
I'm with Dave...Live Aquaria and/or Diver's Den (same company). I have also ordered fish from Saltwaterfish.com and had good experiences with them.

Got a question about controllers? Ask away...

I've used LiveAquaria, Saltwaterfish, and Petsolutions, all with good experiences. Nothing beats LiveAquaria though....

Salty fingers since 1989. Current tanks: 240g FOWLR, 15g QT.
Why not support your local LFS? I have had success with AW,Ship Wreck Cove and Aquatica's fish. I would buy anything from them again. Even high end stuff.
nada...:cry:
I also buy locally, very much. Sometimes what I want happens to be online though.
For example, I've never seen a Chaetodon paucifasciatus locally.... not super high end; stores just don't stock such a random fish

Seems liveAquaria is the one to go with, I will possibly be ordering a green mandarin
+1 locally but sometimes the pricing or the livestock availability makes that hard but it is nice seeing what you are buying before it arrives. It is priceless especially on corals to see the livestock in person as the pictures can be very misleading.
Buy locally and support sd shops! Unless you waited for a while and cant find the fish of course!
Pet kingdom usually haven't checked there in a few days, might check again befor I order
Find out when they are ordering or picking up orders and talk to them...any local LFS usually will look for you. Then you can meet then at their shop when they return and keep it in bag or let it get acclimated at their shop first. I have purchased online and now that Saltwaterfish.com does not ship priority, my FedEx drops it off like a normal package hence a few dead specimens. Then the online place gives you a store credit to pain yourself all over again. Easier to just check a few local stores IMHO.

Called them and they have them in stock now will be stopping by there tomorrow thanks guys
Mandarins I would lean locally for sure and make sure it is eating, they are ich magnets and don't fair well if they aren't eating. I think you are going the right way on that fish locally for sure as I lost one from my pair.
