Anyone with experience buying livestock (fish, inverts, coral) from Algaebarn? What are your thoughts?

My understanding is that everything is captive bred and kept in species specific tanks.. so it sounds risk of parasite and infection is low.. seems like it would be okay to add to DT without QT?

Hi there! Fish and coral are shipped directly from Biota's facility in Florida and you are right that everything is kept in species specific tanks. Our inverts are also keep separated from everything else in the facility and on their own systems as well. Most customers put the animals directly into their systems but if it is something you are worried about then you can always QT your fish/coral/or inverts as usual :)
