Default What is the best place to buy livestock on the internet?

My local fish store doesn't carry many corals or even many fish and the ones they have are in terrible shape. I keep looking at ordering fish off the internet but I just don't trust them. I have heard horror stories about some places shipping dyed anemones and other things so I have just been leery. I guess my question is what is everyone's opinion on a website I can trust.

i like Aquarium Fish: Tropical Freshwater Fish and Saltwater Fish for Home Aquariums because they have a 15 day guarentee on EVERYTHING and if it is aquacultured or tank bred, there is a 30 day guarentee. and if something does die, you dont need to send it back at all, they will just automatically give your money back...super easy. and they have LR for a decent price as well.
