UK Breeders, which company do you use to ship your fish

If it's about fish in general, or it's a little bit random, then this is the place to post it.

Hi all,

Are there any couriers that specialise in this?

Guys

Just be aware that sending livestock via Royal Mail is not permitted. It is a breach of contract and your insurance will be invalid.

APC Overnight are the only carrier that I am aware of that are licensed to carry Ornamental Fish.
