We double bag fish to be shipped to prevent leakage during
transit.
|
|
All Bettas are bagged one to a bag, and shipped in a sturdy, styrofoam shipping container.
|
|
Depending on the length of travel, "bag buddies" may be used to
reduce ammonia and add electrolytes to water, so the water may appear a blue
tint upon arrival. :)
|
|
We ship traditionally by USPS, occasionally by Fedex, and ask
that you be available on the day of arrival to receive the fish and unbox as
soon as possible, for the health and safety of our finned friends. We will arrange shipment with you to make sure you can be
there.
|
|
We usually ship on Mondays or Tuesdays to prevent weekend
layovers.
|
|
Minimum purchase amount $50 US.
|
|
We charge a flat shipping rate of $35 US for up to 6 fish, $2.50
US for each additional fish. This includes the box,
shipping fees and heat pack if necessary. You keep the box! :)
|
|
Additionally, with your order, you will receive a
starter microworm culture, lineage report on the fish purchased and freebies
when available.:)
|
|
PAYPAL IS OUR PREFERRED METHOD OF PAYMENT, to make other payment
arrangements, please email me to discuss
hans3114@bellsouth.net.
|
Acclimating your new bettas (s):
|
Our ph is around 7, so during acclimating, please keep this in
mind.
|
|
Open the box in a dimly lit room, since the bettas have been in
the dark for quite some time during travel, the shock and stress levels will be
minimal if opened in a dimly lit room. :)
|
|
Check the status of your new arrivals, and report any DOA's to
me within 24 hours. Replacement fish will be provided if a photo of expired fish
in the unopened bag is provided with 72 hours.
(Replacements will be dependent on availability, please be aware I may not be
able to provide an exact replacement concerning color, finnage.)
|
|
Remove the outside bag, as these bags are ink labeled with
identification and may contaminate water.
|
|
Float the bag about 30 minutes in your previously prepared water
(we use and recommend tap water treated with Prime) to adjust the inside
water to the temperature of your water.
|
|
Slowly introduce small amounts of your water into the bag. Do
this 3 or 4 times before releasing the fish into it's new environment.
|
|
Please note, it is VERY normal for the bettas to lack color upon
arrival and will brighten up once situated in their new environment.:)
|
Our Bettas Diet
Our Bettas are fed a base diet of Hikari
Pellets, frozen bloodworms, frozen brine shrimp, daphnia, and often,
California blackworms. With occasional brine shrimp and other
treats. We try to feed a varied diet. Your fish may refuse to eat for a few days
following transit, but rest assured when settled, they will eat....:)
Please notify me of any concerns or
issues within 24 hours of arrival. I want to be sure you and your new fins are
settled and happy! Also, be sure and send me a quick
email upon
receipt of the shipment to let me know they have arrived safely........
Please note we only ship within the United
States at this time.
