Reliable fish source

[forestsofkelp]

Hi,I am looking for a good fish source in the southern cal area….wrasses,tangs, anthias. I am on Orange County but am willing to drive to San Diego or LA

I am looking for prequarauntined/treated fish. Willing to pay DrReef prices.

I have been having trying since online with a reputable dealer but my survival rate is 50% and I am not very excited about that.

i don’t think it’s the tank. Me and another reefer both test it, and it gets an icp monthly. Nitrates are 1-2, SG is 1.026, pH 8.5, temp 77.5 rock solid, it all should be good.

Any local reccomedations? Thanks

Have you had a bad experience with Dr. Reef? I have 2 alive and one DOA so far, but the two alive are doing great.

What is your acclimation process? I don’t know of any stores that really QT fish. I think the bigger issues are who they get their fish grim and how they care fo them while in their care. Captive bread fish should be healthier, however most stores keep them in the same systems with wild caught fish, exposing them to desires they have never been exposed to before.

Sorry, I had to laugh at your typo. Those wild fish are surely giving the captive breds a whole new world of "desires".

I was at Age of Aquariums yesterday and they said they pre-quarantine all their fish. I don't know specifically what that means so you may want to inquire about their processes and if they'll suit your needs.
