Does anyone know of any couriers that can ship fish. And how do they work?, is it that you call them 2hrs in advance and they'll come collect them and send them off? or wat happens, thank you

1st class special delivery which delivers next day by 1pm, with the post office is what people use. Good packaging with a box and lot's of bubble wrap to protect plus clearly marking it's fragile and/or live fish. Heat pad for winter time.

Anything but fry will not be guaranteed by Royal Mail "Special Delivery" and if you saw the way such items were handled before delivery, you would not use this as a viable option (I'm a postie). But many do and many fish arrive alive, I would never risk it personally.

APC on the other hand, is a good alternative. "VickiandKev" amongst other regular fish sending swear by them, I received a shipment from an online fish store using them and fish arrived in good health.
