For a guy like me whos closest Store that sells Saltwater is 3 hours away with 2 aquariums, or edmonton 5 hours away the internet really appeals to me for certain things. WYSIWYG really appeals to me even though I have to pay a little bit more. To ship livestock via airline its 75-100 dollars. Its that much for me in gas alone to drive to Fort St John BC or Edmonton to go get them myself and I dont have to waste an afternoon to get it.
I have enough smarts on me though to realize its cold outside and even properly packaged there is a chance the livestock may die, so ship it heated cargo. I dont go and ship it UPS where it sits in a cold truck all day.
