Packaging and Handling

  • Fish are packed as close to departure as possible.  Fish are treated while in our holding facility before being shipped.
  • There is a $10.00 per box charge for packing and hauling to the airport. The packing charge for goldfish and koi includes outer box, plastic bag, icepack in warm weather months and preparation for shipment. The packing charge for tropical fish includes the plastic bag, outer box, inner Styrofoam box and heat pack in cooler months.
  • The hauling charge includes transportation cost to and from the airport. We ship freight out of Houston, Texas which is 5 hours one way for us to travel, but we have found we get more direct flights by doing this.
  • Extra ice packs are available at an extra charge
