Chances are you're not the first person to have a question; hopefully we've answered it below, and please feel free to contact us anytime.
Shipping is flat rate based on the shipping method (most orders will use UPS Next Day Air) and four box sizes: small, medium, large, and giant. Partially filled boxes cost the same as full boxes. To maximize your shipping dollars, our checkout will show how much room is left in each box so you can fill up the box of your choice.
Heat and cold packs will be added as needed at no extra charge.
We ship to locations in the United States including Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. A $30 surcharge is required for destinations in Alaska or Hawaii. This surcharge is not automatically added at checkout but currently requires a separate transaction; we should have it integrated with checkout soon.
As of February 2023 we are testing shipping to Canada, but no other international locations. Please contact us with questions.
Usually your order will ship within a week. We'll notify you via email what day we plan to ship; if other arrangments serve you better just reply to that email.
Most fish are pulled the day before being shipped and fasted so they can void their bowels before their trip.

There are two ways to know what items have been added to inventory.
Search results only include items that contain matching text in one of their red header values or are in a category/subcategory that contain the search text. Item description text is not searched to help reduce irrelevant results and improve performance.
Often less is more with search, for example to find 'Pseudomugil gertrudae Aru IV', try searching just 'gert' or 'aru'.
