    I am looking for a good online place to buy corals because the closest lfs is about 45 min away from me :/ so good online dealers that have pretty good prices and shipping costs :)

    We have lots of great sponsors on here. I also love Vividaquariams.com (especially their WYSIWYG section), Diver's Den (the WYSIWYG part of LiveAquaria.com) and Bluezooaquatics.com is pretty good as well.

    My boyfriend bid on some stuff on ebay from Coral Creations. He was local to us, so we went and picked the stuff up rather than having it shipped. Doesn't look like he has anything for sale right now, but we got great deals/great prices and the stuff is growing like crazy. Nice guy, too. We talked to him for about 2 hours LOL.

    I agree with Kcbrad, tho I haven't ordered anything online this tank I have in the past. I did get my great live rock to seed my tank from vivid and they were absolutely awesome in service and shipping.

    I also agree with Tykimeister to skip reefs2go and will add Aquacon to that warning.

    I recently ordered fancy zoas from Coral Morphologic and they are GREAT! They also have other coral including some AMAZING ricordea. Not only that, but also they have the lowest shipping I have ever seen for shipping coral at $29
    Good luck with your search

    You're just not stalking them soon enough, They put up plenty of clams all the time. Usually 2-4 of them sell within the 1st half hour of them being up.
