If you think about it Flower....the shipping is almost what you would pay in tax....almost
And the quality from swf....is worth it to me...although I have no choice but to buy online
Nope my method works great for me. I usually order from SWF. I wait however until they have enough of what I want. Usually about three corals that I want...when they have them
available all at once I make an order. The shipping is free because the order is above the required amount. I even get to replenish my CUC for free with the repeated customers gift.
I love their livestock and the guarntee can't be beat. I had ordered a fountian head feather duster from another site. After not getting my order for over a month
I contacted them. They said they were out of the fountian head dusters, and held my order...didn't say a word, just didn't send a thing. I was ready to contact the better business guys. I was livid.
They offered me the purple feather duster cluster as an alternitave, it cost the same price as the fountian head worm. I said Okay because I had also ordered a purple sea fan, which was the only one I could find anywhere. I really, really wanted that sea fan.
In the end the cluster was great, and I love my sea fan too. The purple sea fan nor a fountian head duster were available from SWF.com, not even on the list. So if wanted them I had to go elsewhere.
I always order online. The only stores around here with corals have very poor looking critters, one store has everything covered in hair algae, the other always has coral with sore spots. I won't put sick coral, nor hair algae in my tank. So SWF.com is my main supplier.
