![]() If I was looking for something a little more unusual I would certainly look to other reefers. In the event I was looking for something that doesn't generally do as well in captivity I would look to other reefers, too.
I have a couple of fish that I would happily and willingly part with. I just don't care enough about getting rid of them to post them for sale. If I saw a post where someone was looking for these fish locally, I'd have no qualms about going through the effort to remove them from my system. |

I shop at all my local LFS as much as I can. But geographically being in the south end of a very long city north-south where all the LFS are in the north side, for me to visit all my favourite shops is a full day endeavour, or at minimum several hours. I just can't do that every week anymore like I used to. So I might very well post about something I'm looking for, it can't hurt to ask, and if I get a tip of someone on the fence about selling one privately .. or a LFS who has it ... either way it's a win for all parties.

![]() I'm not anti LFS, we need them and I support mine. That being said livestock from a hobbyist will typically be larger, healthier and cheaper.

![]() depends on the place.... sometimes your fish is more!
it's no different then the reptile hobby. I deal with breeders, kijiji, people that just have pets.... I rarely have to go to a store, I can even get the food for my geckos from the forums!!! To put this thread into perspective.. I will be picking up a foxface from Subman today for a portion of the price of a lfs. 2" for $75 or 12" full show piece healthy fish from another reefers tank for $50?? I got a heck of a deal and an amazing fish for a great price!

![]() I've posted a couple of times looking for stuff, for me it was because ive asked for a couple different fish or corals at my LFS and they couldnt get them in. But I recently started to go to a different LFS and I can get anything under the sun the sun within 2 weeks. I really think its just due to what suppliers stores use.
