I’m fairly new to shipping my fish, so when two purchased pairs–going to Illinois USPS Priority Mail–were delayed 3 days, the buyer and I were prepared for the worst–but hoped for the best. The upshot was that guppies shipped on Tuesday didn’t arrive until the following Monday, meaning 6 days in transit. Happily, they arrived alive and in good shape. Buyer reported the fish were doing great and sent me pictures (photos). (Fish color is bleached out in photos.) Note: I have a nice selection of guppies now, but I will be selling guppies on Sept 20, 2025 at the Sustainablereef extravaganza. Will I have any left? And I’m not sure I will be shipping during winter and holidays….
