What website do y'all prefer to shop on? BRS? Saltwateraquarium? Amazon? List them below!
 
Amazon, two day shipping and return policy
Aquacave
BRS
You need to really look at the return policy of some of these places, before you decide to buy. Some of them sell things that you can't return if you opened the box. I started with Marine Depot and that quickly ended when they wouldn't take a return on Tunze protein skimmer that I had for all of one day before I decided to return it.
 
Premiere Aquatics is awesome, and has amazing customer service. Luke is particularly great there.

Maybe we should add a poll when we get enough options?
 
BRS, Amazon, Home Depot, Lowes, Premium Aquatics, Marine Depot, Champion Lighting...

Probably in that order with most hobby related orders placed at BRS
 
BRS is where I have ordered roughly $3,000+ worth of equipment and have been happy with every purchase. Even if they don’t offer the best deal, I’ll be glad to pay a little extra to order through them. Everything they do for the hobby makes it worth it in my opinion. The knowledge I’ve recieved by watching their videos is priceless.

One time they forgot to include one piece of my order (a reeflink) so I called and they shipped it to me in two days no questions asked. Plus their reward points program helps out as well.
 
BRS- shipping is usually only 1-2 days for me.
I more shop for pricing so I have bought at:
Saltwateraquarium
Marine Depot
Amazon
 
Amazon
Marine Depot
BRS
Live Aquaria
Premium Aquatics
All of these have been great
 
AquaCave is a Horrible company to deal with. I placed my order on 12/25/18 and never received it. Per tracking information from USPS - it was delivered. I contacted Aquacave to inform them that I never received my order even though the tracking information says it was delivered. I informed Aquacave that i have a ring doorbell and no one came to my house the date that USPS says the package was delivered. Aquacave says they will contact USPS to put a trace on the package but it will take at least 3 weeks to complete. I waited and waited and did not hear anything back from Aquacave. Then after a 3 months Aquacave stated i need to open a ticket with my local police department about the package being stolen or lost. I did a police report and gave Aquacave the ticket # and everything. Then Aquacave after almost 4 months of waiting responded and said their is nothing they can do since the tracking information says it was delivered. UNLESS you want to spend your hard working $ and not get your item then do not buy anything from this company. They have terrible service and do not care about their customers. I am not stuck paying for an item that i have not received. STAY AWAY FROM AQUACAVE. Terrible company and terrible customer service. They do not care about their customers!!
