If I owe you fish, you will be hearing from me in the next few days to schedule shipments,etc for next week. Thank you for your patience. I have 26 additional boxes arriving from Tanzania on Wednesday. Please watch my list as I am about to do some summer box lot specials.

Hi fish friends and customers,

I have finally received some good news on my shipment. My Zambian shipment that got delayed is shipping Saturday the 12th and arriving on Monday the 14th.

All pre orders will be shipped out 7-10 from arrival date. If you want sooner and want to treat, I can ship that weekend. Would need the fish to at least rest for 4/5 days and pre treat.

Thanks all for your patience.

Take care,
Matthew
