We maintain proper permits for all sharks. We are not fly by night
amateurs or poachers.
We are
skilled pros with more than 15 years in shark collection for aquaria. |
The manner of placing an order with us depends on who
you are and what you are ordering.
- If you are ordering fish that are listed as
"In Stock & Ready to Ship" that can be shipped by air or overnight,
you should email us the order and we will confirm the shipping
arrangements, box charges and freight total. Then we will
arrange with you BY PHONE a date for shipping. You can then
send a check or money order by mail, or we can send you a Paypal
"Buy Now" button in email so that you can use your Debit or Credit
card to pay online.
(If you are sending a check, you should make a deposit using Paypal
as all orders are shipped out in the following order 1) Prepay
orders, 2) Deposit orders, and lastly 3) Remaining stock is first
payment received, first shipped. We do NOT hold stock.
Sharks are seasonal. BUY NOW or miss out. Perchance the stock you want to purchase is sold by
the time your payment arrives, we will fill the rest of your order
and return a check for the unused balance or we can return your
check to you. Therefore, it is best to secure your order with
Paypal or a wire transfer.)

If you are a public aquarium,
you should contact us at least 3 months before you need the fish and
at least a month before the collection season for the species
begins. If you are uncertain when your species must be
collected, just contact us as son as you think you wat a species.
You will need
to arrange payment with us by phone, confirmed by a written
agreement. We do not offer anyone net 30 days or other credit
arrangements on an initial order. Repeat clientel or contracts
may receive terms dictated by an agreement. Orders are prepay or deposit with balance due on delivery
for all collect to order species depending on the order and our
discretion. In stock species simply
require payment prior to air shipping or shipping deposit with
balance due on arrival (for live transport deliveries).
Air
shipped stock is guaranteed live arrival. If stock does not
survive shipping, you will have the order replaced or credited once
you file any necessary claims with the shipper.
- If you are wishing to order any species that
is listed as "collected to order", you must send a deposit before we
will begin collection of that order. This is necessary as
collected to order species either tie up a lot of our aquarium space
or cost us a lot of money and time to collect and store. If
the species is not collected and shipped, deposits may be refunded
depending on the arrangements made before the deposit was accepted.
- If you are a pet shop, jobber, or wholesaler,
you should try to order as much as you can at one time to save on
shipping and assure that you get what you need before supply runs
out. Full payment prior to air
shipping is required. Live arrival guaranteed. If you
order is a live transport, you may be allowed to pay the balance upon arrival,
but, you must pay for delivery costs and a deposit up front unless you are on a
regular route. Live delivery charges are
non-refundable.
- Directed fishing collection - When you pay us
to fish for a given species when there is not a guarantee that the
species may be taken or it is out of season, the deposit will not be
refunded unless we decide against collection.
As you can see, different species and stock are
ordered in different ways. We have developed these policies for
the fair treatment and protection of you, the buyer, and us, the
supplier. You should contact us with the order
you would like to place and we will arrange a payment
method, shipping date and finalize the manner of ordering and the
payment prior to you sending us any money. Again, if you want a
species (especially Bonnethead sharks), you must post a deposit for your order.
You will also be expected to provide information in your order.
You must also provide a cellular phone number for the person picking up
any shipment from the airport. If you are a jobber, reseller, or
retailer, you will be expected to supply complete contact information
and your business information including street address.
Private aquarists will be required to email us a
photo of their system prior to ordering. We will not send sharks
to people with systems that are too small. A picture of your
system is the fastest and safest way to confirm your hobby and
suitability for a shark. Also, individuals trying to resell sharks
will be separated from retail clients. All sharks sold to private
aquarists are not for resale especially, interstate resale as reselling
will violate some laws based upon which state is involved. We
cannot be responsible for legal issues and game laws in your area as
there is no provision for resale by unlicensed retail clients!
We do not intend to store sharks for clients.
You may ask that we hold portions of an order until the order is
complete. That may be fine if we have space in order to save you
on shipping. However, it costs us money to tie up space.
Therefore, if part of your order is not in stock or is collected to
order, you will need to take shipment on the available portion of your
order and get the rest when it passes quarantine.
If you have read the above, and our
shipping policies and are ready to order, please, email us at
or
call us.
Public aquaria, pet
shops, and wholesalers - Include your name, title, telephone number
and the aquarium for which you work.
Private aquarists, hobbyists and
fish keepers - Include your name, address, phone, aquarium
dimensions, and attach at least one picture of your aquarium. This
information is required to assure that you are not another wannabe
competitor trying to get a pricelist or someone who does not even have
an aquarium who just wishes to waste our time. Without this
information, we will not waste time responding to an email.
If you wish to find out the availability of an
order or inquire as to the collection of an order, please,
email us.
YOU MUST PROVIDE THE DIMENSIONS OF YOUR TANK IN YOUR EMAIL. We
don't care about gallons, just physical dimensions. A million
gallon system can be made from a 3 foot diameter column. So,
gallons dont tell us anything about your system's suitability for
sharks.
