I have had no problems sending or receiving fish and invertebrates sent USPS
Priority. I guess now I'll have to look into the cost of Express. When I
lived in Tampa I had everything shipped and received by Delta and would pick
the fish up at the airport. Airport to Airport is the best by far in my
opinion for large orders. Since relocating to Ruston, LA (close to nowhere)
I have used FedEx Overnight on many occasions (arrives b/w 10-11am) and DHL
Overnight one time on a shipment of 6 fish from New Jersey (arrived at 2pm).
These services cost an awful lot but I never seem to mind too much after the
fish arrive in good spirits. Having been in the hobby for over 30 yrs now,
when I finally find that fish that I have spent several years looking
for.nothing is worse than receiving them DOA (any fish for that matter)
especially if it could have been avoided.
Good things,
-Brett
