how many of you have gotten most of their live stock on swf.com?

I've gotten almost all of my fish and clean-up crew from SWF.com - a lot of my corals and such have come from other sources!

All of my clean-up crew(snails/crabs/shrimp/lettuce nudibranch) have come from here. Plus the only fish I've ever order on-line was from here( a foxface lo & recently a lawn mower blenny)...I prefer to hand pic my corals & I've never ordered corals on-line. I had always been cautious about ordering fish...but the two I ordered from here have been excellant!

I've been on a holding pattern with my tanks most of the summer, just a few more weeks till I move.... than its a mighty big spending spree on saltwater... I'm sure I'll toss some to this site and give it a try.
 
I have bought a few things from SWF.com and was pleased with most of the items when they arrived. I buy most of my livestock at LFS because I like to see what I am buying prior to purchase. I tend to buy most dry goods items at various online retailers.

I've gotten most of my livestock from them and have had good success. My LR I got elsewhere.(before I knew of the site). When my local stores were getting $50 for a Blue Hippo Tang and for the same size here for $25. I said what the heck and tried SWF and found by following their acclamation procedure to the letter I haven't lost anything yet. I got a Oriole Angel from them and this guy is awesome. I have a order coming tommorow - no fish but inverts - Only problem is searching constantly looking for them to have stock that I want to get to the $75. Called my local store Friday looking for a anemone for my tomato clown & they told me $135 for a green bubbletip, so I'm getting one from SWF for $30 tommorow. My hermits, and cleanup crew, shrimps, ricordas were all good stock and far less prices than locally. Wish they had more frags, polyps and mushrooms though. I have to admit I would like seeing what I was getting before buying but I haven't got burnt yet. **** Only thing I got from SWF I can't find in my tank is a crab with a anemone on it's back. Got too many places for it to hide in my rock and haven't spotted it at night. (Yet) I hope others have the same luck as I have had.

I also have bought fish and clean up crew. I bought a yellow tang and a friend of mine bought a maroon clown from the site which I still have. I just ordered various corals and inverts so I will see how they turn out. I am sure I will be pleased. I was with my first order.

Mine were two toned green and mounted on very tiny fragments of rock .. easy to just glue the rock frag to my LR or in some places I just shoved the little frag piece in a hole. here is a picture of three of them while I was drip acclimating them:
