Tadpoles, fish and shrimp are posted in breathable bags which allow the transfer of carbon dioxide out the walls of the bag and allows oxygen in via osmosis.  This means there is an unlimited oxygen supply during transit and they are well packed in a sturdy box. During times of warm weather dispatch may be delayed if there's a risk of the livestock perishing. If this is the case we will let you know and inform you of when to expect delivery when conditions are safe to post.
