1. Buy your fish
Not sure where to buy? Contact us! Please read our shipping policy before placing an order.
2. Pay your seller
Pay your seller for the cost of your fish and the transhipping costs to the Indonesian transhipper.
3. Pay transhipping fees
Contact us for a quote and pay our transhipping fees. All fees must be paid by e-transfer and before the shipment arrives so that we can ship your fish out right away.
4. Your fish are sent to us
Your seller sends the fish to the Indonesian transhipper and then the fish get sent to us. After we import your fish, we do a health check and get them ready to be re-shipped.
