Zoanthids and mushrooms

Hey. Im looking to get a few last corals. Nothing big, just red and blue mushrooms and yellow and red zoanthids. My LFS takes forever when I ask for a specific coral and they still dont have them in from a month ago. Anyone know some good websites? (other then liveaquaria)

Tell your LFS to find your stuff or your never coming back!

If your LFS store doesn't care about you than it isn't worth your time buying stuff their cause they probably don't care about their live stock.

www.vividaquariums.com is great. They have every color of zoas and mushrooms. I have purchased from them more than once with excellent satisfaction.

These blue spotted red mushrooms were $49


These 7 green stripes came on a 3lb coraline covered rock for $49. I orderd a 3 mushroom frag but they were out so they substituted this one


these zoas were $39, I think.

Thanx. They have a deal on shipping. If you buy $225.00 worth of live... the shipping is free. Other wise it's $29.00. In my live shipment, I got 3 zoa colonies (1 was so big, I broke it into 2) 2 mushroom colonies and a real nice toadstool for $235.00. And, they called me to arange shipment in 2 days. They are the only place I have bought from so I really can't rate them, but I am certainly satisfied.

Thanks a lot for that response. I think Im gonna find a new website or go to a new LFS because I'm the "what you see is what you get" type of person so i know how big the rock of mushrooms is so i know where to put it in my tank, and all that good stuff.

Thanks!

mappelbaum37 - I see you are located in the northeast. There are 2 online store I would reccomend.

pacificeastaquaculture.com

aquacorals.com

They both have a good selection and are located in the northeast. Aquacorals is in Maine and Pacific east is in delaware I believe.

i like their website b/c its all WYSIWYG.

I'm pretty lucky, I have 4 LFS to pick from.
