I have considered putting in an order here http://www.mrcoral.com as he has everything 50% off right now.

He quoted me $80 shipping when I inquired about a 10 pack of zoas.

Any corals coming from the USA cannot be on live rock, or it requires CITES. CBS even frowns on frag plugs sometimes.

Regardless, shipping or bringing it from the USA requires CITES to make it legal, if you apply for it it will cost you $250, and up to 2 months to recieve the permit.

Then shipping is another issue, same day or next day shipping, any other way will not guarentee the livestoce to arrive alive.

That is the reason the cost of corals are more in Canada than the USA, they have more AquaCulturing facilities down there too. I have personally visited a few and some are huge, not basement operations.

I think he is a little tick off because he think we are all bashing his opinion and being very negative towards him.

Perhaps if his only intention was to establish contact with private sellers of frags and he'd phrased things differently he'd have had different results. It was strongly worded and took a stab at LFS's rather than simply requesting contact with private sellers.
