thanks and nice to meet you, checked out aqua giant yesterday and i was pretty impressed with some of their fish and the prices were GREAT but they were severly lacking in the coral department.....whats your opinion on blue world aquatics?

BWA usually has lots of nice zoo frags and Xenias and stuff, Steve at RC has a great selection 99.9% of the time

used to work @ bwa! some of the best staff (i'm biased...it was a lot of fun working there)! redcoral gets some awesome corals in! steves a good guy! AI is good, always had stock in pretty much everything... you can always go in on one of our frag a lot orders for corals as well! there will be another one mid to end of april... (slight plug for that) lol

I found BWA had a decent selection despite Ken saying that their stock was low at the time. When I was there they just so happened to be on sale - score
