BlueZoo or Saltwaterfish.com?

[Fishpony]

I Would like to order fishes online. The species I'm looking for or both available on the two websites but there is a price difference. I am thinking about ordering for saltwater because of the price and guarantee but When I order them it'll be my first and last from them so store credit will be useless. BlueZoo prices are pricey but the species I will be ordering are not covered in their guarantee, but from what I've read they come in nice quality. So which one will be the best to order considering the options, since the fishes are not carried on Liveaquaria which sucks.

I'd go for bluezoo since I've ordered stuff from them in the past. What are you ordering?

A Snapper and a moray eel. I've heard mix reviews about saltwater fish.com

Edit: Also Both fish are for sale on the two website, but for blueZoo they're not under their guarantee

I'm pretty sure they have snappers too. I've ordered though them quite a few times and you can't beat the coustomer service or the quality of the fish as well as the great packaging.

I wished they had the snapper I was after. The snapper I want is either an emperor or sailfin. Also for the eel is a black/blue ribbon ( I know they hard to raise/keep but I've been researching since september so I've created the tank around it). But Unless I want a white ribbon or blueline snapper then BlueZoo or Saltwaterfish.com is my only top choice for getting these fish.

Also the price for a black ribbon for a 14-20" fish is $74.95, but at saltwater a 20-24" is $59.99. The Sailfin snapper price is about the same. Which is better for livestock quality and shipping since I'm probably going to order them together.

So it looks like I'm probably going with bluezoo for my fish

Go to your LFS and ask them if the can order the fish for you. You will save on shipping and many times they are cheaper then buying online.

This guy had emperor snappers on sale for $20 a few weeks ago. His website doesn't have stock on it so you will have to call him.

I wish, my only lps is petco and petsmart that is close to my home. If I want to go to ocean floor (the only lfs which is 40 mins away) most of the things are very expensive (like almost 2 times as expensive). Also I went with a sailfin snapper. I think that bluezoo is good too because even if my fish are DOA i can get most of my money back. But If they die on the way home I get nothing since If i buy from ocean floor I believe the maximum price for a livestock refund is 10$ give or take.

Edit: Also petco can order fish in but I don't really trust them. The one near me is ok but ever since the original fish guy left the place has gone down
