Finally added another fishie and coral. It's pretty bad when the only place I can buy coral locally is at petco. I kind of felt like I was rescuing the fish.

Sweet lookin pallys? or are they zoas.. only 1 cardnial?

Lotus is making me think long and hard about getting a group of those Cardinals for my new tank.

Petco actually orders from ORA, should be some decent quality specimens if you get to them before they sit in petco tanks forever.

 

[zoalover34]

im def. going to get 2 for my tank.. Just got to find a store that has em lol

 

[Joe Fish]

I ended up getting 3 of them. The 4th was a gonner so I felt bad... I think they are palys, but i'm not sure....

One of their tanks had ich bad! There was a heavily infected CB. I almost was going to get him just to QT him. They didn't have a very good selection of coral, but it'll be worth stopping in now and again to see.

 

[skratikans]

you should probably QT the coral from them too

 

[zoalover34]

The petco's by me went out of business.. How much were the fish if ya don't mind me askin?

 

[Joe Fish]

I believe they were 26ish a piece. I was going to order them off liveaquaria anyway for 29.99 so I thought, what the heck.... My next purchase is going to be through vividaquarium.com

Nice stuff!

[Joe Fish]

they have awesome corals...

 

[Cichlid-Man]

Very awesome. Their Acans are very nice. What kinds do you plan to get? Mixed bag?

 

[Joe Fish]

Yeah, I'm looking for a nice blue zoa or paly. Frogspawn, which are 1 of my favs, bubble coral, maybe an acan. I'm looking for a cucumbber and shrimp too. I'm sure my list will change a bit before I order it.

 

[zoalover34]

I have some blue zoas i could frag, could probably cut a head off of my frogspawn also it started with 4 heads and is up to6 or 7 in like 2 months

 

[Joe Fish]

have some pics? how much?

 

[zoalover34]

I have some Tubs that im going to be fraggin in about a month..

I have these i could frag now (not the best pic)

Frogspawn

As far as price goes pm me we can work something out..

 

[Joe Fish]

I finally made my first coral order online... I'm a little worried so I hope everything turns out ok. I got some tubs, hypnotic zoas, frogspawn, plate, gsp, xenia, and 2 cardinals. I got everything from vividaquarium.com as they have a impressive in stock selection. I'll have to post some pics when I get them. This will be my last purchase for a while, per my wife, so I have to make the best of it.

 

[Cichlid-Man]

Nice! Can't wait to see them. I keep wanting to do a Vivid order....ah maybe once the new tank is setup.

 

[TRe]

[Joe Fish]
