Hi guys. Thanks for the kind words and hopefully this is me being down but not out. Shipping is quite hard on any fish and the bigger ones could be a pain but it can be done if the right person does it. I know Alberto is quite an expert in receiving and shipping big fishes but he lives about 4 hours from me and not even sure he would come up to pack and ship the fishes.
I can't speak for any seller but the other problem you face is that live arrival will not be offered because I don't want to ship and any seller that offers their help can't be held responsible for the fish either.
Only other seller I know of close enough is NE Cichlids in Tampa and I don't even know if he would attempt to ship anything that is not his. You are all free to look around.
Shipping the bigger stuff, if anyone tries it, must be via air cargo.
I am very sorry for any inconvenience this causes and I would love to be able to ship reliably for you guys. Maybe someone can pay Jed's plane ticket and he can come donw and pack for you.
