Ok then, what is a good place to buy rics online?

I got my FL rics from a guy in the keys. I forgot his website. In searching for his website, I came across reefscavengers. His prices are very reasonable. I have not used this site yet. There is discounted shipping for Fl residents. That is very tempting to me. Anyone bought from them? Feedback is nice.

Yea i bought from them. It was the most horrible experience i have had over the net. No insulation, broken promises and melted coral.

whisp, islandmarinelife on ebay. they are in the keys and some of the most wonderfull people i have met reefing. Quality healthy stuff packed with love and it shows. You can really tell these people care about what they are doing when you talk to them and recieve a shipment of theirs.

sealifeinc.net is also in florida and Ken has great stuff and even better service.

That's the one. I ordered from him twice. I was happy with the transactions. However, I ordered from him last summer, so there was no need for heat packs. Ask if he uses them especially if ur up north.

Try Reefgardener.net, Gatewayaquatics.com send Chad a e-mail for pics of some of the stuff he has his site isn't updated as much but he has some great stuff.

Seconding this, I ordered 1 assorted type ric and he gave me 2. Everything I got from there was alive and in good condition (small) but it seems they toss in extras quite often.

SAPseven · #12 12/04/2007, 04:08 PM

yeah ken is the man i got well over 20 rics from him .. and ordered 3 new ones last night.

Whisperer · #13 12/04/2007, 06:05 PM

Yeah, he has this yellow ric now that was not there when I ordered.

For Florida Ric's www.sealifeinc.net.

Hands down Ken is the best. I have order both his blue and pink Florida Ric's both are awesome.

He will ship them US Postal Priority $12.00. With a Arrive Alive Guarantee.

You should check out the new yellow color he just got in. I ordered mine yesterday can't wait to see it.

I got two rics from reeftopia and they are beautiful. Once they opened they were about 2 inches across each. The packing was great and they had a heat pack in there. The price is good at $14.00 and they have free shipping at $99.00. This was my second order with them and both were flawless. Just my 2 cents.

joetekyun · #16 12/06/2007, 09:27 AM

sealifeinc is awesome!

TRANSMATT · #17 12/07/2007, 04:04 PM

I picked up 11 diff colors from a shop here in indianapolis and I believe he was going to start shipping. (paradise reef.us)
Not much online yet but if you contact him he will find what you are looking for at a good price!!

reefwisher · #18 12/08/2007, 10:11 PM

Liveaquaria in the Diver Den. I like to see what I am buying and the customer service is far and beyond excellent in my expierence. I don't even hesitate to buy from them.

X2. My club just did a group order. I got a yellow, Blue/purple, and a steel blue. All arrived alive and are doing great. I got an extra Blue/purple in my bag.

I've bought stuff from him before(live in CO) and he used a heat pack for me

He sells amazing coral!

gotta go with sealifeinc i just got an order in from them, everything was healthy, well packed and they opened up the first day and even got a few extras much to my delight. I will definitely be ordering from them again. Liveaquaria is great too but if it's ric's you are looking for cant go wrong w/sealifeinc.net.
