Default Copepods Across the Border

Has anybody ever brought pods across the border or had them shipped from the US? I am thinking about buying some copepods and amphipods from the US and having them shipped to my US mailbox and then driving them across the border. Just wondering if anybody has done the same?

I'm also interested I would like to have them mailed to me though. Anyone with any stories?

Why not skip the border all together?

I've dealt with reefcrew in the past and they have been great everytime!

Yup, no amphipods at reefcrew. Reefs2go is where I'm looking to order. Just don't want to have problems at the border. Shouldn't be an issue but I though I'd see what other people's experience was.

I have ordered from these guys a few times with zero problems.
they have awesome customer service.
a couple of times the shipment was a day late and they resent the whole shipment no charge to me at all.

they also ship with all the necessary documents to get it across the border including the fish and wildlife documentation.

as for buying it from somewhere else, no sure how the border guys would react.
probably shouldn't be a problem..but is it worth the chance?

hope this helps
Neal

Reefs2go doesn't ship to Canada... but that is the golden example of what I am looking for.
