Howdy folks, I’ve recently gotten in to the aquarium life and I got really lucky to live near a really neat aquarium centered store. Though I would like to compare prices to online, but I want to avoid amazon by any means since I just don’t want to support them. What are some online shops you’ve all had good results with? I’m mostly looking for foods and plants for freshwater fish. In a few years after getting comfortable I want to move on to saltwater.

BRS is more reef focused but has a good selection of equipment and dry goods. I’ve gotten plants and some planted dry goods from buceplant as well and it was all good stuff. Honestly tho you should try to support your local shop as long as their prices are reasonable.

I've seen that site a few times, it seems to be pretty decent all around. I'll keep checking them as comparison.
