    @carl leathwhite I don’t understand what you’re saying, please explain?

    Is this advertising?

    Think he's asking at which LFSs the more cost-effective brands can be found.

    If you don't have a registered physical pet store they won't even talk to you. Its a real struggle.
    Easiest is to ask your local pet store to do you a favor and ask to order via them.

    Yep, it’s a real pain. Im currently in the process, some suppliers send you like a 40 page form you have to fill out.

    And 90% of them require you to have a 9-5 brick and mortar shop with signage.

    Dont even bother bud, the industry is so tightly protected and locked up, short of opening your own store just to get decent pricing for your self, you'll have a better chance of breeding clown loaches in captivity than buying direct!

    Hahaha, its bad but it’s not THAT bad hahaha.

    I’ve got a couple of suppliers down, thing that I realised is it all comes down to how much effort you put in to it.

    You definitely have to put in some money and work tho.
