+1DD. I've ordered a number of fish from both LA and DD. Never an issue with DD, but my first shipment from LA resulted in a total fish die off in quarantine. It was one of my earlier experiences with QT, so can't fault them entirely. They also took care of my shipment / expense. Did I mention their insane packaging???
Additionally, I have (occasionally) been able to get them to hold a fish for a bit while I wait for another (save on shipping). Their fish are usually eating well - and honestly, I think that's the most important thing for successful transition.
I would recommend full QT for any fish purchase. I do Tank Transfer Method, and have had good success.
For me, a small premium for a fish with good chance for successful establishment in my reef tank = worth it.
