Hey I was just wondering where the majority of evryone on here buys their zoanthids from. Online, local stores. Is it safe to buy online?

I've gotten most of mine local or in swaps with people I know. They ship well and there are many reputable online retailers. Always QT everything no matter where it came from.

Yeah, I have traded for most of mine, and picked up some forom the LFSs, but there are quite a few online dealers of high-end zoas. They do indeed ship well, so I think you're OK there, shipping is just expensive.

I was just reading some positive feedback yesterday about zoafrag.com in this NR thread (http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=117440&hl=).

YMMV

Here's my vote for local stores. Although there are many great online retailers as well, I just prefer to see my livestock purchases in person.

i buy all my zoo's from a place in southern california. it's called vivid aquariums.

Vivid Aquariums - Buy Online - Fish Store in Los Angeles - Buy Saltwater Fish, Live Corals, Live Rock, Drygoods and Aquarium Supplies (http://www.vividaquariums.com)

they've got a section called "crazy zoo's" and i'll say they have the best colors i've ever seen.

Whereever hehe. I like to browse frags.org - Buy, Sell, and Trade Coral Frags for Free (http://www.frags.org) and have gotten a few good deals on there.

Rattelmike welcome to TR and thanks for the link! When I drive up to LA to go to Disneyland for Christmas(moving to SD very soon!) I am going to definitely check that place out! The sapphire blue ones are really nice!
