I think Ken at Blue world can/will ship out fish. He has good suppliers and seems to be able to get in most any kind of fish. Plus he will make sure the fish are eating and healthy before shipping them. You could pm him and ask.

Problem is, anything outside of the lower mainland is at least 2 day shipping. The only thing I trust to survive that long in shipping are zoos and Snappy's frags

That sucks, is there no way to get it shipped to you faster? At least I would like to believe it could be done but with livestock 2 days is too long to risk it. You would think there would be some way to overnight it somehow.....

Marie, check out some of the Basslets and Assessors. Beautiful little fishes. I'm seriously thinking about setting up another tank with these guys.
