Aquarium Livestock Shipping
Live Goods are generally shipped via Airline guaranteed freight unless otherwise specified. By shipping guaranteed freight, this allows us to choose the flight the animals will be on, and advise you the arrival time. In addition, we request that all live goods be held in a heated warehouse prior to you receiving them, and that they are shipped in a heated compartment of the airplane.
In most cases we can also ship to your door via UPS overnight service. While this is more convenient and tends to cost a little less, we cannot offer a live arrival guarantee.
For regional orders (those to Vancouver Island, and the interior of British Columbia) we can ship by bus, but please note:

LIVE ARRIVAL WILL NOT BE GUARANTEED ON BUS & UPS ORDERS - NO EXCEPTIONS!
Packaging charges will be applied to all orders containing live goods. Box charges are as follows Small (2-4 items): $5.00, Medium (5-8 items): $10.00 Large (8+ items): $15.00. There is no additional box charge for live rock orders. There will be no box charge on orders in excess of $200.00. We will do our best to ensure that your product is packaged in the smallest package while providing the greatest possible protection of the animals to ensure they arrive to you safely and in good health. Heat packs are used when warranted for an additional cost of $1.00 per heat pack.
CORAL, FISH AND INVERTEBRATE SHIPPING COSTS


REGION AB
0-$100 = $50 shipping
$100-$200 = $40 shipping
$200-$300 = $30 shipping
$300+ = $25 shipping

All shipping is next day air.

I would arrange it for a Friday and pick up at airport Saturday.

I'm interested! Which friday?

I'm in there all the time what are you guys thinking about getting?

I will be there on Tuesday if you want me to have a look and see if it looks good and healthy?

If they have any Achilles tangs there i would be interseted in putting in an order.

Bump
 

Bump

tagging along

If more people order to bring down the shipping cost I'm in.

Are you talking saturday the 25th?

NOpe
 

No not this week. Looking first week October I think.



Jason... I saw another thread saying orders over $300 and shipping is free... I am not sure about it as cant find it on the website.

If you secure a date lemme know I might be in

Hey Paddy, I tried to find a large anenome, didn't see it under invertebrates or under the fish heading. Weren't you looking for one too? If I can order a large lta, I'll order with you.

Oct 8 Weekend
 

I want to order for delivery on weekend of October 8. let me know how this works.

Ok
 

So there is no free shipping promo.

If we are $300+ the shipping is $25. So between 4-5 people thats nothing.


If anyone is interested let me know as soon as possible.


I want to have the order delivered Saturday, Oct. 9.

The order would be placed the Wednesday prior (Oct. 6) and would be be shipped air Friday for pick-up on the Saturday.

I do not work Saturdays so can pick up no questions.


Any thoughts?


Patrick

Who is in
 

Pm me if interested.

To those interested
 

I am willing to make the order and pick up at airport.


Those people who are wanting to make an order must arrange to have funds transferred to me or dropped at my house on Wednesday Oct 6 by 7:00pm.

This is when I plan to make the order.

The order will be placed for Friday shipping and Saturday arrival.

If you are on the list to order... but do not drop funds prior to order... I will, unfortunately drop your order.

I hope you all understand that I do not want to somehow end up holding fish waiting for payment that may never come.


If you wish to be apart of this group order... please submit your info by private message:

Name, Telephone and Items wanted.

Also, I do not have the facilities to hold fish for pick-up. Once I know when fish are due to arrive we will make a time to meet (very soon after) so we can get our fish acclimating to protect the "Arrive Alive Guarantee".


Any questions please let me know. Suggestions also welcome.

Does anyone know how up to date their website is?

Stock
 

They have some stuff not listed for sure. Best to call and verify stock with the store.

I will be in I will make a list

Update
 

I need to know who is ordering for sure so I can see how the shipping will work out.


We are ordering in a week. Now is the time for each of you to contact JL directly and confirm they have what you want. they may or may not hold it, I am not sure.

After stock checking... PM me what you would like and cost of items.

As I must place order for everyone, I must remind you I need payment for your portion before the order is placed. If you do not make the arrangements before cut off I will not be able to order for you.

I am unavailable to meet this weekend, and school Monday and Weds... So Tuesday is best time to meet up.


Please let me know ASAP if you plan to order.

so is the delivery date Oct 8th or 9th?

Delivery
 

Delivery date will be Saturday the 9th Of oct. order will ship friday over night.

Might get a better turnout if it is not on a long weekend (people going away).

The last time we did this the order was shipped same day (plane) and I believe they guaranteed live arrival on everything. We lost a few and the credited us the losses...

Do they provide the same guarantee with overnight shipping?

Thanks

Flight
 

That is flight we are getting. Same guarantee. Same terms.


Long weekend? which one? Thanksgiving?

2nd week of October is a holiday but I'm still in if your going to order.

I would be interested in the ordering
but does it have to involve fish or basically any live stock ?

Good Question
 

I believe livestock is livestock. Shipping charges are the same and it is the entire category.

INFO
 

Group Buying Aquarium Supplies


J&L Aquatics encourages group orders for either livestock or equipment. In many instances (especially with livestock) it can save you a fair amount of money on shipping alone. In order to expedite this process and eliminate any confusion, please follow these simple guidelines listed below.
One Ambassador needs to be assigned per group order. The ambassador is required to coordinate ordering between the group and J&L. We will work closely with the ambassador to ensure the items requested are on hold and accurately billed.
An Order List, which contains the entire contents of the order separated by person involved, will be provided to J&L near the end of the group order Cut off period. Contact information (actual name and phone number) of each person listed is also required. No bulletin board handles will be accepted.
A Cut Off Period needs to be assigned by the ambassador at the outset of the group order, and no additions or changes may be made past this point. The Cut off period is generally the business day before the order is scheduled to be shipped.
It is completely encouraged for the participants to call in on their own and check availability and stock; but, they won't be able to order or hold anything on their own. They must report their items to the ambassador.

The group ambassador is responsible for all order/shipping charges.

I wanna Crocea clam, but you can't order those online :(
and i dont see any Dendros either on their coral list

Order
 

Nothing can be ordered online. Livestock needs to be placed by phone.

Cut Off date CHANGE - TUESDAY Oct 5.
 

So I would like to make the cut off Tuesday the 5th of Oct. I have school Mondays and Wednesdays so just can't be around.

I am also not free this weekend to meet up for money... but you can drop it to my place tonight or Tuesday.


PLEASE PM me your full name and telephone number as well as items wanted.

Also, take the time to verify they have your items ahead of time. I have verified mine and I am good to go.

I need an idea who is ordering today, and approximate order value so we can factor shipping charges to what you pay.

So Far
 

Confirmed part of group order...

Myself, Tony, Jason, Murray


At Approximately $195 so far. That's $40 shipping plus heat packs.

Once we hit $200... shipping is $30... @$300 its $25.
