I moved to a new area and starting up a tank. I was very spoiled with my old LFS that was stellar, had a QT practice, and lived in an area with solid distributors (CA).
I scoped out the LFS's in my area and I'm completely horrified by all of them except one and the one that I'm okay with happens to be about a 40 minutes drive from me. The one I was cool with does have a QT practice on all new arrivals and I feel a little bad if I don't buy from them as I want to support them...but they are pretty far :-/.
I'm highly considering on-line only from Live Aquaria or Blue Zoo Aquatics for my 125G build. My main issue is really shipping cost, but their $29.99 fee is pretty reasonable and actually makes them about the same price as the LFS here
