I deal a lot with buying fish online, mainly African cichlids. Every dealer importer I worked with ships fish counter to counter. Meaning, the importer brings the box of fish to the airport, checks it in... it gets on the next flight to my airport and I pickup directly at the airport. Its cost about $65 to ship, but depending on flight time, the fish are normally in and out of the bag in <12hrs.
Being that marine fish more delicate than African cichlids, why aren't dealers going this route?
