My experience with Jeff's was fine. I did the 9 for $99 and a few more items to start my 180 gal tank. 3 out of 12 items died. Guess I was lucky. Some of the corals are good size. I thought if 50% of the stuffs live. it would still be cheaper than getting from a local store. I did talk to a sale person and asked him to pick some good stuffs for me.

I think it is a good place to get some basic stuffs to start your tank.
