    Has anyone bought from this place before? I did a while back and had great luck, but I wanted to know if anyone else has before I get a giant order, just to save myself in case anyone has had any bad experiences with them.
    They have the biggest selection of fish, corals, and inverts that I have ever ran across online. Seems to good to be true. I bought one fish and two corals from them 6 months ago, but like I said, I would like to get a massive load of corals, but just wanted to see what you all have to say.. That's aquacon.com

    Perfect! That's what I wanted to know. I'll just stick to ACC then /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/smile.gif that's a shame a company could do that to their customers, and their selection looked soo good! I thought it looked too good to be true

    If it seems to good to be true it probably is. They most likely stack their site to look like they stock everything, when you put it in your cart it is now out of stock. Always has been always will be.

    So what site do you recommend online that has a good selection of fish and corals?

    I still devote all my local business to ACC, they are my favorite store by far, but they don't carry too many fish, at least right now, time will tell. As far as corals go, they got that under control lol

    Never heard of em, do they have a website? I try to be a loyal customer to ACC and keep my local business with them. They are a really good group of guys, and definitely want to see them hang around. It doesn't hurt to look tho, right /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif

    I've ordered a few fish from them in the past, good specimens, well taken care of, and the packaging was top notch.

    I don't get to davenport much, but I suppose I'll take your word for it, mike /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/wink.gif. Davenport isn't too far away from me, so I suppose I'll make a trip down there /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif Thanks, Mike!

    should be closer then washburn....I think ACC hs a uch nicer selection of coral but AE has a very wide selection of fish and equipment. Greenonion works there also.

    ACC has ordered fish and other items for me several times. Just let them know what you are wanting. They will do what they can to get it for you.
