Cheap quality frags

Subillbo · 04/29/2018, 02:12 PM

Hi all.....
I've been looking for some places online to purchase small coral frags for my nano, and bought some from aquariumdepot.com..... they had a lot to choose from and had a decent price.... was wondering if ppl have bought from there before with good success and their experiences from there... also any advice on other places online that ppl have had good luck with.... as always thanks!

I just bought an order from aquariumdepot. Everything was delivered in good shape and is doing really well. I’ll definitely be ordering from them again in the future.
In the past i ordered from live aquaria and had some success. But that was a while ago. I also placed a few orders through eBay.

Bluezoo, Live Aquaria(including Divers Den), Cherry corals, Austin Aqua Farms. To name a few I have ordered several times from with very good results.

AQD is fine...
I have placed orders with them in the past but I had DOA with every order. Each time they comp'ed me store credit. But that meant I had to purchase from them again if I wanted my money's worth.

I think on my sixth purchase I had no deaths so I finally was out of store credit. Decided that was that and no need to deal with them in the future.
So in all, never had such poor packaging but their customer service was nice.

I think my favorite is Pacific East. I like their aquaculture business model, their engagement in public education, that they have frags of all price ranges, and that they run specials often.
