Looking for a fish store/ marine company that...

Hey guys, do yall know any fish stores that ship fish/coral to outside of the states? I live in the caribbean (Trinidad & Tobago to be exact) and the marine industry here isnt as expansive nor has as much variety as in the U.S.

I plan to employ overnight shipping to ensure next day delivery so it will be less stressful on the fish.

Thanks...

Looks like its time to take a flight to miami. There are so many great stores here and it would be well worth the flight. Then just carry them home.

Ahh check with customs and make sure its ok.

If you come can you bring some fresh coconut juice.

It will be hard to get anything of quality, I'm guessing since even if you get the overnight delivery, the supplier may not be able to guarantee a speedy arrival and customs, and stupid rules delay the process. You may want to search more for suppliers in or around Florida since they are closer. I'm sure you can order any kind of crab or algae, but then again you could just get some of that outside.

Try http://inlandaquatics.com/. They are really awesome, not super mind blowing stuff, but they have bee around for a while and I don't see why they won't help you out if you email them first.

Thanks guys, i may be coming to miami but that may be after christmas. I usually do alot of shipping business with regards to goods..but where the handling of livestock is concerned, UPS, FEDEX and DHL dont ship.

In doing my research i saw miami has a wealth of fish sites that export but mostly to the continental usa. We have really lovely reefs here but catching the fishes can be a b*tch and i havent a clue how to begin. I was pretty impressed with Aquatic connections website but they also dont ship abroad.

Thanks for the responses guys an yeh ill bring some coconut rum for ninjamini
