Best Online fish source.
What is the best online fish site? I am looking to purchase a Flame Hawk. Unless of course anyone round here happens to be selling one. Thanks for the info.

i would not buy any common fish online, only if looking for some rare fish or a pair. Flame Hawk are common enough. You should have it feed at the store if possible. Many lfs can pick up just about any fish if you order it from them. I plan to order colorful SPS from online vendors because LFS don't have too many with vivid colors. imo

Well I would be saving about 30-40% buying online. All the LFS sells the flame for around $50. Any ideas? Thanks

and there is only 2 LFS within 10 miles of me here. and they are limited on selection. I drove down south today trying to see what is to offer down there. I hate to have to make a 2 hour trip for a fish. Thats another $30 in gas. Can't win here in palm beach.

Try Tanks alot up in Jupiter. If they don't have it, they'll get it for you. It's been awhile since I was there, but it was a phenomenal store!

I always order from vividaquariums and generally have had great results with them. I'll be placing an order w my first pay check of 08 if you care to wait or work something out.

IMO Liveaquaria, they are very expensive but their quality is also there and they guaranty the fish for 14 days. They are part of Dr's Foster & Smith.

I would only buy fish at an LFS. It is much better to see the fish eat etc first. Even if they have a guarantee, Doesn't help the fish much if it dies.
Most LFS' will order a fish for you. Better to find a good store and stick with them. I know, sometimes that is hard in itself.
