Yes, with postage still heaps cheaper. It depends what you are after as to which is better. I use equarium for all my decorative things and the other for all my filter parts, check valves, pumps etc. I order from both usually at the same time and with both lots of postage combined they are cheaper then the stores around here where I live. (As long as you order more than one thing). I usually stock up on filter sponges etc about once a quarter.
