Local vs online: when each wins

Local fish store wins when
  • You want to inspect the specimen in person
  • You need it today (no waiting for shipping)
  • You're starting out and want hands-on advice
  • You're picking up tank water for cycling tests
  • You're buying dry goods and impulse items
Fast Aquatics shipped overnight wins when
  • You're chasing a specific named cultivar
  • Your LFS doesn't carry the species
  • You want WYSIWYG photos before buying
  • You're buying in volume (frag pack, shrimp pack)
  • You want documented Trust Score from the seller
