Hello! Im not sure if this is in the right section or not but I didnt really know where else to put it so if it is in the wrong spot im sorry. Anyway I've been looking at aquabid and ebay and amazon a lot for my fish sales lately and have seen a lot of things that I have been interested in but am on the fence about because I dont know about the sellers. I would like to know if anyone has some sellers that they have previously worked with that are good and honest that they would highly recommend whether for buying live fish and plants or just supplies. Specifically on Aquabid because I see so many people selling that I never know who would be good to buy from or not.

So what are you looking for? On AquaBid I have only done business with two sellers: JDAquatics who is a member here, and nofishtoday who runs the website bama plants. Both are awesome sources of live plants. Not sure about those that sell other stuff though. I recently won a crown tail boy on eBay from a seller under the name ilovbettas, who is also Bettaprime in AB. I haven't received my boy yet but so far the seller has great communication and reasonable price. I'll keep you posted.

Edit: I think the easiest way is to find a product you want, and then ask people if they have experience with the seller. There are too many sellers in AB and eBay to review unfortunately

I was looking specifically at live plant and live fish sellers. I have seen a few people mention JDAquatics so that is one seller that I do know is good but I am looking for any others because I don't want to have to rely on only one

I have also heard good things about Chard56 then :) sells live fish mostly but if I remember correctly also sells microworm culture. I keep close eye on his auctions on eBay but in the end I settled on my current one. You can also always keep an eye on the marketplace section over here. People sell live plants from time to time.

Oh yeah I see his name alot on aquabid I didnt know he was also on Ebay. Is the name the same for ebay or is it different? Have you jeard anything about Bluegrassaquatics? I see them on aquabid and have wondered if anyone has anything to say about them. I also just checked out ilovbettas and it has some really nice looking fish I will definitely follow! I hope your new guy arrives in good condition!

I have several eBay sellers I like. Unfortunately, three won't be selling again until the Spring. I just bought two Betta from a person in California. Reasonable prices and shipping. They will be mailing on Monday so I can let you know what I think about his stock when it arrives. So far his customer service has been exemplary. I bought a HM Giant and a HMPK; both a total of $45.00 including shiipping. He had four HMPK on AquaBid right now.

I have had good luck with ilovbettas; just bought a HMEE from him on AquaBid where his is BettaPrime.

My favorite of all is sending me some photos of their current Betta. They do not sell imported Betta but breed from imported stock. I can't remember their AquaBid name. If you send a PM with your email address I'll forward the photos to you.

I bought Random from them. He wound up being deep Indigo but kept his white head and that "skunk stripe."

Chard56 is his AB username. I don't think he has an eBay store... I mean if he does I should be able to tell!

I don't seem to come across bluegrassaquatics a lot but check out their feedback page. Usually says something.

Edit: DOH I'm an idiot LOL typo. I meant I keep an eye ln his auctions on AB.
