	buying cories online.......
brtaylor2000 Enthusiast Posts: 193 Kudos: 154 Votes: 0 Registered: 03-Sep-2004	I know cories cant survive in a fish bag for a long time because of the air needed so would it be bad to order cories from an online store. The reson I asked is because I cant find pandas anywhere and with this big wave it kinda set some of my lfs stocks back I really want these pandas any good online stores i can get them from...........

I was leary about doing this, but recently took the chance and made my first on-line purchase. I am very pleased with my purchase. Since you can't buy them locally, try online. I know there is some risk involved, but probably the only way some people can acquire certain fish that are not available locally.

I also recommend liveaquaria.com. The price is a bit high... But the quality and shipping (only $25) is well worth it... I had some very delicate fish delivered from them (black angelfish and german rams) and they were happy with little/no stress at all.
