A Professional, Responsible, and Fish-First Approach
Shipping live aquatic animals requires experience, patience, and precise execution. We do not rush shipments, and we do not compromise preparation — because professional export begins with respect for life.
Order Confirmation & Fish Reservation
Once an order is received, the exact fish is reserved and locked to match the confirmed selection — no substitutions.
Dedicated Pre‑Shipment Care
The reserved fish is kept separately under controlled conditions and monitored to maintain stability before shipping.
Pre‑Shipping Fasting (Minimum 7 Days)
Feeding is stopped at least 7 days before shipment to reduce waste and prevent water contamination inside the bag.
Final Health Assessment
Each fish is checked for overall condition and readiness. Only healthy, stable fish are cleared for export packing.
Multi‑Layer Protective Bagging
Each fish is packed using a minimum of two high‑quality bags to reduce risk of leaks or punctures during transport.
Pre‑Conditioned Clean Shipping Water
Shipping water is prepared at least 7 days in advance to allow chlorine and harmful substances to dissipate fully.
One Fish per Bag Policy
One fish per bag — always. This reduces stress, prevents injuries, and ensures oxygen stability during the journey.
Optimal Water‑to‑Air Ratio
We keep water volume at approximately one‑third of the bag, leaving sufficient oxygen space for safe breathing.
Pure Oxygen Injection
Each bag is filled with pure oxygen to provide clean, stable airflow across the full transit period.
Safe Travel Duration
With proper preparation and packing, betta fish can travel safely for approximately 5–7 days.
Continuous Monitoring & Repacking
At every handoff, the fish is checked by the carrier and trans‑shipper. If anything abnormal is observed, the fish is repacked immediately.
Our Commitment
Every shipment reflects the same standard: calm preparation, professional packing, and responsible handling. For full terms, destination handling, and DOA policy, please review Export, Shipping & DOA Policy.

How long can betta fish safely travel during shipping?
With our preparation and packing standards, betta fish can safely travel for approximately 5–7 days (depending on route and handling).
Why do you fast the fish before shipping?
Fasting helps the fish clear its digestive system, reducing waste and preventing water contamination inside the bag during transit.
Is each fish shipped individually?
Yes. We ship one fish per bag to reduce stress, prevent injury, and ensure stable oxygen availability.
What happens if there is an issue during transit?
The fish is checked at each handoff. If any abnormal condition is detected, it is repacked immediately by the shipping agent or trans-shipper.
