Hello friends!

Just curious to know. has anyone bought fish from J&L aquatics and have it shipped over to Calgary? How was the process and did you have good luck with the fish that came over?

I was looking at getting some fish from J&L and thought i wuold ask for some information.

Thank you
Al

I have never purchased fish personally however I can personally vouch for their awesome customer service. Over the years I have purchased large ticket items from J&L simply because of the customer service and ability to communicate well with their vendors :smile:

I’m in Nova Scotia and I’ve bought fish from them several times and it went great. I’m sure shipping to Calgary will be no problem at all.

I have organized 2 group buys. Both went just fine.


I will be doing another at the end of August if your interested in tagging along for reduced S&H costs. I'll post when we get a little closer and I can time it a week after one of their large shipments so there is good variety.

I am in Lethbridge and have ordered from them 3 or 4 times over the past year. I wouldnt hesitate to order from them again, I have better success with their fish than any of the stores.

I've never had shipped because I live here. Though in the vancover area they have the best and healthiest stock. I will not buy any where else. They have been able to get me all my hi end fish. I've never regretted a purchase. Vary knowledgeable and honest. They have stared me away from bad choices instead af making a buck

I am in Vancouver so J & L is my local store, all my fish are from there and they offer top notch service, for Vancouver region they really have the best stuff for marine tanks.

thats awesome. I recently got the blueline angelfish from them 2 weeks ago. he is doing amazing. I think if anyone plans to buy from J&L let me know. we could do a group buy.

I'd be interested in a group buy since I am finally getting my aquarium stable again.

I've bought from them before. The most important thing is to pick it up at the airport directly. I've had too many shipments from FedEx/UPS that spent so long in the truck, the livestock was DOA.

Yes from the air canada pickup depot, 100%.

My tank is almost on track & I’ll setup the group buy.

They do a pretty good job at what they do. You don’t get a good reputation by doing things half way. Excellent customer support. The folks in the fish room will do you right as well.

I have had them fly stuff to me they do an awesome job l wouldn't worry about there end .But the airlines on the other hand I would be more concerned about there incompetence.
