|
|
The Items |
|
in the pictures in this website have long ago been sold. So we can't ship you the exact same fish,
shrimp, plant, etc., that you see in the picture, and the item
that we ship may not look like the picture on this page, but we
can usually ship you items that are nearly the
same.
|
|
|
 |
|
|
If you're interested in buying an
item that's marked "Out of Stock", we
recommend that you add this page to your favorites or bookmarks and check back on this page from time to time.
Generally, we do not know when an item will be back in stock. It might be a few days, or it might be much
longer. We usually do not get advance notice, so we can't supply you with any more information, and it will do no good to email us and ask when we'll have it
back in stock.
|
|
|
 |
|
|
If you see "Not For Sale" by an item
that interests you on this page, it means that we don't have that
item in our
facility now, and it's unlikely that we'll have it soon.
Why do we include a fish on our Price List that we are unlikely to sell? Because AquariumFish.net also provides information and links to information about
some types of fish that we do not sell.
We do not have other stores, and we do not know of other suppliers of
these items. Please do not send us emails asking for other suppliers.
|
|

*About our Best
Assorted Platys
|
|
|
|
We get lots of
gorgeous Platies. In
fact we get
thousands of them.
We are also a pet
fish wholesaler, so
we have lots more
fish than any retail
store or other
online pet fish
supplier. If you
order our Best
Assorted Platys, we
will catch you the
best from among the
huge number of them
in our aquariums!
That's good !!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
How will we choose
the Best Platys?
It's interesting
that we get lots of
gorgeous Platys
that don't seem to
have an exact name,
so they don't appear
on the list shown
above. For example,
click
here to see
several Platys,
which we get once in
a while. We know
lots of our
customers would like
to get unique Platys
like these. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Freddie says he's got the answer!
"If a
customer will send
me an order for
#3785 or #3796 or
#3797, Best Assorted
Platies, and add a
Special Request,
giving me some guide
lines about how to
choose the Platies,
I'll do it. For
example, you might
add a Special
Request and request 3 males and
5 females, and give
me some idea about
the colors you
prefer, etc. You'll
get some uniquely
beautiful Platys!"

Platys and Hifin
Platys
are all the same
species. Well,
actually all or
almost all Platys
have genes from
at least two
species,
Xiphophorus maculatus and Xiphophorus variatus.
Many Platys also
have genes from
Swordtails. So the
various Platys in
aquariums are
hybrids and all can
interbreed. Almost
all female Platys
are pregnant and can
deliver several
batches of babies,
even if there are no
male fish in the
aquarium! Breeding
livebearer fishes,
such as Platys,
Guppys, Swordtails,
Mollys, and many
other species is ...
very exciting and
great fun ! |

Ordering
& Delivery of Living Items |
|
|
|
The Prices
The Prices are payable in U.S. Dollars and are always listed for ONE item, which is usually one
fish, but it might be one shrimp, one crab, one aquatic plant, or one fish bowl depending on the
type of item. |
|
|
The Sizes
are listed in inches and refer to total length of that
item and includes the tail, if the item has a
tail. Each size is the size of the item for sale.
The pictures often show items of a different
size than the items offered for sale. Eventually
an item may grow to be bigger, even much bigger. |
|
|
Learn about the Fish, before You Buy it !!
Near almost every item, that is listed for sale, there is a link, which includes more information
about that item and often includes the maximum size. We strongly recommend that you carefully read
about each item, before you buy it! |
|
|
No Minimum Size Order
There is no minimum order size. Order as many items or as few as you want. |
|
|
Where Do We Ship?
We ship to most addresses in the contiguous
48-states and to some addresses in Hawaii and
Alaska, but we cannot ship outside the United
States. So we cannot ship to Canada or Puerto
Rico. We apologize for any disappointment this
causes. |
|
|
The Pictures
on this web site show items that have long ago been sold. So we can't ship you the exact same item
that you see in a picture, and the item that we ship may not look like the item in the picture,
but we can usually ship you an item that is nearly the same. |

The first column in blue on
the left shows the days that we receive your
order. Read across to the middle column in yellow
to find the day
we will ship your order, and the pink column on
the right shows the day you will usually receive
your order.
So for example, if you order on
Thursday after noon, you will usually receive
your order 6-days later on Wednesday, but if you
order on Thursday before noon, you'll get your
order the next day on Friday! ;^ } Hooray! All
of this is organized to maximize the safety to
the fish.
The "Usual Delivery Day"
is the day after your order is shipped. We
always ship in the late afternoon and
the delivery to you is usually the next day
before noon, which minimizes the time.
|
| |
| Note: We can also ship on
Friday for delivery on Saturday with an
additional charge of $12.50. To ship on a
Friday, we must receive your order before noon,
our time, on Thursday, as shown in the table
above.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
Notification
We will always notify you by email, before we ship your package. Our notification will include the
name of the delivery company and the approximate time of delivery
to your address. From the day we receive your order,
you will usually receive your package within three to five of our working days, which are Monday
through Friday, excluding holidays.
|
|
|
your Street Address
The companies that we use to deliver packages will not
accept a package from us that is addressed to a Post Office Box, so you must enter a Street Address

The delivery companies also will not accept a package without
your phone number to call in case they have trouble finding your street address.
|
| |
IMPORTANT

time of delivery, in
case they have trouble
finding your address. |

Include everything listed above in your order, but if something is missing, we will contact you
and help you complete your order. We are very well organized,
very friendly, and we have successfully shipped many thousands of packages of fish. ;^

About our Photographs ...
Almost all the
photographs and videos, shown on this web site,
were taken of our fish by DrTom Bailey, one of
the owners. Compare the fish in these pictures
to the fish in our competitors pictures. Their
fish often have clamped fins and poor color,
while our fish look healthy, energetic, and
colorful! We buy the highest quality fish,
produced by the best fish farms and
caught by the best collectors of wild fish, then
we take incredibly good care of our fish in our
advanced facilities. If you compare the fish
shown in the pictures on this site to our
competitors, you can instantly see, ours are
better! ;^ }
