nycreef,
Few of us have shopped all of them, but I can recommend these:
Atlantis Aquatics; Premium Aquatics; Marine Depot; Pet Solutions.

My favorite online site has been www.thatpetplace.com. Had the chance to shop there several times in person. If you find a cheaper retail store let me know.
LR/LS-check out www.roozens.com
There local here in MD, but not to sure on shipping cost.

You can't go wrong with Premium Aquatics. They ship the day you order and you're probably close enough for packages to arrive in 2-3 days with regular ground shipping.

Ever since Premium Aquatics changed to Airborne Express for ground rather than UPS i've gotten my items NEXT DAY!

I've ordered twice in the last 2 weeks and both times received my order next day with only paying ground prices.

I'm thinking of chancing it and purchasing some livestock and getting it shipped ground since it's coming so fast but then again who wants to chance it.

Still, I highly recommend PA, and Jason is excellent on customer service.

Agreed with Premium Aquatics. I would rather pay Jason a little more than others, just because I have gotten great service from PA.
I will, from time to time, use Petwarehouse, FFExpress and that PetPlace. If nothing else, you get good catalogs every few months from PetWarehouse and PetPlace.

I actually had to buy everything for my new aquarium (lighting, test kits, meters, etc, etc, etc). I actually went to about 7 to 8 online stores (all of the ones mentioned above) and created a shopping cart on all of them (purchasing identical items). The lowest price of them all (shipping included) was Premium Aquatics. So there you go. I do all the work and you get to reep the rewards .
