Pricewise, I think reptiledirect.com is the best, although me and a few other people had trouble with order mix-ups. Lots of people like drsfostersmith.com and bigalsonline.com

Forgot to mention, petsmart.com has really good prices, and they pricematch in-store, so I do that if i need something in a hurry, I saved a ton of money on heaters and filters.

I think that www.bigalsonline.com is THE way to go for filters, water heaters.

I like www.reptilesupply.com a lot, i just purchased about 3 reptiglo 5.0's and the price didnt kill me, their lighting equipment is priced pretty good. They also sell food and vitamin supplements for an okay price too.

I like the ones xsavingsaturdayx mentioned too. But I've also had good experiences with foster&smith, blackjungle, LLLreptile, bigappleherp, and petsmart.

It depends on what equipment you need to buy. I've always had good results with www.bigalsonline.com
