I’m looking at adding some fish to my 120 mixed reef. It currently has one damsel and one sailfin blenny. I want smallbrightly colored inexpensive fish. What’s a good vendor? I’m more concerned about selection and health than price. Being from WI I have always purchased fish from Live Aquaria but I have seen more than a few complaints about them recently.
Anybody have any suggestions for a good vendor?

They say on their Facebook that they start QT but are not QT. Was looking at them recently.

Ive purchased at least 8 of my fish from them and fat-healthy-eating upon arrival. Juan does QT for two weeks and assures they eat or no ship.
Marine betta, leopard wrasse, chocolate tang, copperband butterfly and 4 of my yellow tangs at least 2-3 years are from them

I've bought all my fish in my 250 gallon fowlr and my red sea 250 from either saltwaterfish.com or reef beauties and never had a problem with any of them. And there customer service is top notch

Yes but I am saying you say they QT but they say they do not fully QT and that they just get it started. I am not saying that the fish there are not a good source. Just that they do not QT. They condition perhaps.

I have no idea if QT is important to the OP. I get my fish from a variety of sources but mostly local.
