Nope I hope that Brad will let this go until we see how the current order that was posted about turns out. I hope

There have been some very satisfied customers so that is a good thing.

CONVOY !!! One of my favorite truckin tunes anyone have a MP3 copy of it.

Personally I support the theory, buy what I can see. In saying this I support my LFS and people like Snappy/Coral Master, as I am able to go to his place directly.

Support the guys with the proven track record, usually they are also the sponsors on this forum. They have a vested interest to try and give good service, as they do pay to be on this board.

If someone has had more than a fair amount of negative press, then why bother?

Totally agree Rick, I to support Snappy, got some nice stuff from him just the other day. But sometimes you see something that you have never seen anywhere else and some of us don't have the luxury to take just a short drive around the city to shop.

Thanks guys for the input but as we don't have many places to go for salt stuff around here we have to rely on a lot of mail order even for the basic stuff etc. That is why I asked the question. Let's see what Monday brings and places do deserve a chance to redeem them selves don't you think?

For those who don't have the selection, maybe JL Aquatics also...

I personally never bought livestock from them, but buy quite a bit of supplies, even got my newest light fixture shipped from them. They are always fast and pricing is great. But as stated, I have never done livestock, but can vouch for their great service.

It may look like I am on 24/7 but really not. Computer and Ipad / iphone dont log me off so I dont have to remember my password.

And beside your here just as much as I am

has anyone used oceansdirect.ca ? They also have $10 frags- not as much variety as fragalot, but if they actually ship..? Might be another option for those not near a LFS.

if anyone in Vancouver is placing an order (anywhere!), I'm looking for a sun coral.. so I'd be happy to share shipping

Well that,s fine and I would do to if they did have the selection that fragalot have, but unfortunatly none of the reputable online resseller of coral has a good selection of rare zoanthids. Face it, where can we buy deep water zoanthids?

give me just one?
