OnlineFishStores;Know Of Any Good 1s?

[fishysmell]

Hey I was wondering if anyone knew of some good online fish stores that sells freshwater fish for cheap. I just ordered from Aquatic Wholesale and while the prices were amazing I got screwed on shipping. $70 for $40 worth of fish. They didn't even send the exotic stuff I ordered. Anyway enough complaining. If anyone has done business with a good online fish store type in a reply. I appreciate the help.

P.S. The closer to the west coast the better

I haven't used either one before, but www.aquariumfish.net is in San Diego and www.liveaquaria.com is in Wisconsin.

Yeah, aquariumfish.net looks like your best bet. They only charge $25 for your whole order, no matter how many fish you get.

wow, I just checked those prices of those online stores just outta curiosity...

you guys think those prices are good? holy hell! they are like half those prices at my lfs.

I looked at every fish on there and I think i can get any one of em cheaper here in NJ...and I didn't think the selection was anything special either, except for the stingrays on the one site...

where are you all from?

the prices are not very good, but for people who do not have decent stores or stores at all it is the only option

Yes, I live in the small alien city of Roswell, NM. Although I'm working at a new lfs that has very different fish with good prices IMO. More so than the only other lfs.

I didn't say the prices were cheap, Geoff. There's essentially no such thing as cheap fish online, because even if the fish prices are moderate, the shipping costs are high, given that they're, ummm, shipping WATER too.

What I DID imply was that $25 for shipping any amount of fish was much better than paying $70 for $40 worth of fish.

Sometimes cheaper fish ain't the right choice in the long run. They're usually that cheap for a reason.

I'm in western washington and we have a ton of fish stores but only a few good 1's. They charge about as much as Liveaquaria.com and aquariumfish.com. Therefore, those wouldn't be cost effective w/ shipping. Anyone have any other suggestions for sites? I appreciate the help.
