Livestock from BRS

[Dr. Peter Venkman]

Has anyone ordered livestock from BRS? They are my main go to for a lot of my needs, but never ordered livestock.

It is drop shipped from the different vendors. So if you like those vendors, it should be a good experience

I have not but more than likely the livestock is not shipping from them and ships from thier supplier and brs is just the middle man but I could be wrong. I know they were offering some WWC stuff not too long ago. I would try to find out who thier supplier is and research that company

Looks to be ORA and WWC, don't think you can go wrong with either.

I've never done ORA, but a coral from WWC gave my tank all kinds of critters a while back.

Says online that they get their shrimp from ORA, which is great

The orders do ship from wwc or ora.

What livestock are you looking for?

Nothing in general. Currently need to fix my tank from a aiptasia issue. But I was on BSRs site and saw the livestock, so I figured I'd ask

Better to go with @Dr. Reef

Change to Saltwater Aquarium. They have not sold out to a big cooperation

No predator of Aptasia is 100% effective but Peppermint shrimp work well for me. On the large Aptasia, I help them with peroxide using a toothbrush out of the tank and an injection neeedle in the tank.

Broke down tank because of vermited snails started fresh! Bare sterile everything eventually added clean up crew from wwc quarantined for 48 days and ended up with vermiteds again!!! literally gave me what made me quit!!! So no faith in them for anything except pushing content that financially benefits them!!!! Was going to reach out to them and complain but what would that have done??? Nothing it was too late

Yup, I got hit with those snails too, because of WWC. When I called them they said "well did you dip them?"... Dipping doesn't always work. But yeah, I haven't gotten anything from them since and I don't plan to again.

They quit selling products from companies that compete against those owned by aperture so this may be a way of trying to make up for lost sales?
Doesn't really make sense to me to but from them. If I want something from WWC or ORA I would just order from them and keep brs out of the loop.
