I am going to order some fish off of LA/DD. Will shipping price change if they are coming form different facilities?
Thank you

Not if you hit $100. I actually just accidentally ordered a
$26 fish from regular LA when I was ordering another fish from DD (didn’t realize it was in my cart).I did not get charged shipping.

Thank you.
So, if I my cart did not add up to $100 and I had two fish coming from different facilities would I be charged two different shipping fees?
It will be over $100 but, I am curious how it works.

Not sure about shipping, but make sure you understand that the salinity of the sources will be very different. I don’t know how or if you quarantine or not. But when I get a new fish I match the salinity of my quarantine tank to the new arrivals. I couldn’t do that because the salinity of the fish from DD and LA were very different. Just a heads up. Good luck.

Good thought and thank you. I am taking that into consideration. I am not sure if I will be getting anything of DD. I was mostly just posing a question.

I’ve had good experiences with DD. I do quarantine all my fish however. Good luck.

I assume you’d be charged shipping for both.

Nope, or at least I wasnt. I ordered some 300 from la, and one fish that was 18 bucks that came from biota in Florida. Wasn’t charged shipping at all , for either, even tho the one fish from the Florida facility was less than 20.

Will not my success has been abysmal with them. Some doas, and other than came in on a thread.

When I went to claim them for refunds, was asked what my leveps were, including strontium. Said i didn’t know and that I should be measuring that.

Never again

I said you’d be charged shipping from both if you ordered under $100, not over...
