Livestock Shipping & Delivery Schedule:

I ship Livestock Wednesday & Thursday each week.  I will ship Friday if Saturday Delivery is requested.  In some cases I can ship Monday & Tuesday but prior arrangements MUST be made with me BEFORE placing an order.  E-mail me to inquire about a specific Monday or Tuesday ship date.

Livestock Shipping days are Wednesday & Thursday.
***Saturday Delivery is available if you request it in the “Additional Information/Ask for Saturday Delivery” section of the checkout form. Saturday deliveries will ship Friday & will incur an additional $15.00 Saturday Delivery charge.  Add $15.00 to your order total as it is not automatically included in the shopping cart.

Orders ship via FedEx Priority Overnight Service at a 50% Discounted Rate with No Box or Other Hidden Fees! Priority Overnight Service will get your order to your door quicker & most times by 10:30 am.  It only costs an average of $5 more than Standard Overnight.  This price difference is minor compared to the potential for loss by shipping standard overnight which extends the shipping time. The health of your livestock is my primary concern.

When Your Order Is Received:
I will e-mail you & confirm your order has been received.  I will alert you if any items in your order are no longer available for shipping (which rarely happens).  It is your responsibility to watch your e-mail for communications from me as well as to make sure your e-mail accepts my messages (be sure my messages don’t go direct into your bulk or junk e-mail folders!).

Your shipping information will be e-mailed to you as soon as it is available but no later than the day it ships. 

NOTE:  In the rare event my e-mail messages do not reach you (due to spam filtering, internet interruptions etc.) expect your order to ship as normal based on my ship schedule posted here.

Order Filling:
All orders are filled on a “first order received first ship” basis.  Items ordered cannot & will not be held for any reason.  My policy is if two thirds of your order is in stock, it will be shipped, although my fill rate is usually 100%.  You will only be charged for the items actually sent & your shipping charge will be reduced to reflect actual ship weight.  I do not backorder items.

How Your Order Is Packed:
All animals (fish, corals & inverts) are carefully collected & placed in special duty 2ml ship bags sized for their health, not how little water I can get by with.  They are packed to travel comfortably 48 hours or more, although most often will arrive in less than 24 hours of being packed.   My bags are filled with reef system water the animals was collected from & and pure oxygen is added to the fish bags before being closed.  Heat or cold packs are used to maintain a healthy temperature as seasons dictate.

*Live Arrival Guarantee:
Live arrival is guaranteed!  My fish, corals & inverts are the healthiest you can buy.  The fish are inspected & pre-determined healthy & eating before even offering it for sale on-line.  Upon packing your order I inspect each item again and only ship animals that I know are 100% ready to go!

*Note:  I'm not responsible for FedEx Service Failures.  Though this rarely happens, understand FedEx does not cover livestock damages/losses.  I will however, refund any monies refunded to me by FedEx, i.e. ship charges etc.  This amount will be a credit against your next order.  ANY credit issued for ANY reason MUST be used within 6 months of being issued.

You must be present to sign for your shipment.  Never refuse a shipment! If you do not accept a shipment for any reason, I will NOT issue credit and will discontinue doing business with you.  My livestock can easily handle up to 48 hrs. in transport.  In the case of untimely arrivals or shipping damage, make note of any damages with the delivery person before they leave, accept the shipment, contact me within 5 hours of receiving your shipment & I will contact FedEx and do my best to take care of you from there.

NOTE:  You MUST acclimate & tank all items even though they may seem damaged!  Many corals will close tight during shipping.  If you are concerned about the health of any of your items you must e-mail me a clear picture & allow me to respond before removing the item from your tank!  Again, my tank raised corals are super tough & 99.9% of the time will recover from any shipping stress.
