nuxx Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Hey everyone, I'm thinking of ordering some fish direct from Hawaii in the next few weeks. Either from a diver or Picturesque Aquatics. http://www.picturesqueaquatics.com/ Would like to save on shipping if possible. If anyone's interested, please let me know. -Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuxx Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 Pluses for diver: - Price - Shorter Trip via Airlines Pluses for PA: - 7 Day Guarantee - Customer Service - Eating fish Not going with a Bandit this time, so if I was I'd have to go with a diver since the price would be half. Having a guarantee and not having to go to the airport sounds nice. Also when I bought my Crosshatches and Flames Wrasses from a diver last time, the order got all messed up. Ended up with no Cleaner Wrasses, a Naso (I didn't Order) and a Trio of Flame Wrasses... also the fish were rough... ugh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuxx Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 I don't think there is free shipping. Just $60 per order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuxx Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 ha, what i was looking at was +500$ ha Yeah I like the Hawaiian Vent. Anthias and the Bandits, but I haven't setup a QT in a while, so I'll start with some cheaper stuff first Wow picturesque has some nice lookin fish! Love that earlei wrasse they have..... Have you ordered form them before? Yeah I like they have a lot of WYSIWYG and also will show videos of certain fish eating. I haven't, but I've only read good reviews. The 7 day guarantee is really good on fish from Hawaii as well IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A black Tang is pretty much my last have to fish for my current tank. After that is just corals and Lyretail Anthias.

nuxx Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 Ended up going with Picturesque Aquatics. Just ordered two Cleaners from them. If anyone else wants anything, let me know tonight or tomorrow morning at the latest. They need to make sure not to feed any fish going out. Take a look at: http://www.picturesqueaquatics.com/ Just PM me or reply here with what you want, and then just shoot me a PayPal for the amount. We'll split shipping on the number of people who order. Right now I spent $60, so first person to come on will be $30 for shipping, then if a second it would be $20, etc... I'll refund in PayPal if shipping goes down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
