    I am about to place an order for fish and a CuC. This being the first time ever purchasing fish online like this  I am some what hesitant.  between the 2 I have mentioned which would you say is my best bet?  Both have very similar pricing with in a few bucks of each other.

    I have ordered fish from reefs2go with sucess but that dosn't seem to be the norm from what I've herd. No idea about bluezoo. But if you want 100% helthy fish with a 14 day stay alive guarentee go with liveaquaria.

    thought about LA and even priced it out but it was almost twice the amount and my wife was not going for it.

    I have ordered from Blue zoo several times & they are top notch. Live Aquaria has always been my favorite too.

    i purchased my CUC from reefstogo and was less than impressed. The specimens I bought couldnt have been smaller and I mean that literally. They were so tiny I was blown away. Remember as in most things you get what you pay for. LA is the way to go if you cant find a good local LFS. I have ordered 12 fish from liveaquaria and every single one has been fat and healthy upon arrival. Some of them have even been considered "difficult" to ship. They do a good job.

    Well, I'll go along with the you get what you pay for idea, but I guess I've got to speak up for reefs2go....I've made several orders with them and they have treated me right.

    I've ordered over 250 snails from them, shrimp, zoas, starfish, some PJ cardinals, pistol shrimp, watchmen gobies...

    I guess its obvious from the list I'm happy with them. Yes, the stuff you get is *tiny*, but half the fun for me in this hobby is watching them grow.

    Oh yeah, *0* DOA. With as many snails as I have purchased from them, that's saying something.

    well my Uncle had placed an order 1 month ago with Reefs to Go they yet to fill the order completely everytime he tries to call they answer the phone once every 50 times...so they give him credit to buy something else then they do the same damn thing.....not sure on them as he is still waiting for his stuff. They shipped 40 dollars of 200 2 times.....come on if its not in stock put NOT IN STOCK what is so hard about that....do not lead people on.

    I order my cleanup crews from R2G, but only because of their frequent BOGO sales.

    Reefs2go is a complete joke. Ordered hundreds of dollars of fish/cuc/corals from them. Fish were microscopic, as were the CUC. Some of the corals werent bad, but werent impressive either. 80 bucks of my order wasnt in stock so they gave me a store credit i still have yet to use. Would of preferred a refund. Dont want to spend another penny on that site. Sorry if I hurt anyones feelings that likes R2G. :/

    i went ahead and placed my order with bluezoo. While I agree that LA is a better choice, I needed more then 3 things.

    bluezoo.com or liveaquaria.com wins hands down. reeftopia.com is good if you just want clean up crews
