Hi peeps

Just looking through some online order stores in AUS for fish corals and rock.

I have noticed none have hardly any selection at all, and alot that do have a good selection have no warranty, not that i would send a dead/sick fish back anyway, but warranty = peace of mind in my eyes.

So any good recomendations guys and gals?

One would think seeings we have the most established biggest reef in the world that it wouldnt be so hard to find a reputable supplier.

If not looks like i will be going diving, and personally id prefer not to take wild fish myself.

If you have the skill and it is legal, it would be great fun to collect your own fish.

The problem with warranty is shipping. The online store likely bets that you won't do much, may be credit on next order.

Just thought I would mention that most of the fish in the business are actually wild caught. Not sure if that is effecting your decision on not wanting to catch your own.
