The Saltwaterfish.com 15 Day Guarantee

If your live fish, coral, or invertebrate you've received doesn't survive during the 15 Day Guarantee period just return it by visiting the Order Status area of the website and logging onto your account.  In your account area, next to the order, is a link which will allow you to notify us of any dead animals, request a credit or refund, and determine the amount of the credit due.  Simply fill out this form, submit it, and print a copy of the form to send along with the dead animal.  The form must be included when returning animals to receive credit on any returns, and please note that the form is time sensitive.   The form must be filled out within 5 hours of FedEx delivery in order to receive a refund, and 15 days of delivery to receive a store credit.  This quick and easy procedure will allow you to keep us informed of the status of your order, while not burdening you with unnecessary paperwork and calculations.  

We also offer a Money Back Guarantee for any item that does not arrive alive.  Instructions for the Money Back Guarantee can be found at the bottom of this page. 

Credits can be applied on the final checkout page when placing an order.  Instructions are also supplied in the email you receive when we issue your credit.  Your available credit can be viewed through the Order Status button or on the final checkout page.  Free items do not qualify for the guarantee.  Any item returned from a Reef Package will be issued a credit based on its value as part of that particular package.   Credits do not count toward the minimum live goods  order requirement and cannot be applied towards live rock, live sand, or aquarium supplies.     

Return Instructions:
It is very important that you cover the item in  a generous amount  of table salt in order to preserve it in the return envelope. Send the item that didn't survived in a ziplocked bag (absolutely no water) inside an envelope.  Place the item into a ziplock, pour the salt, coat the item with the salt, close the ziplock and then place that into another ziplock bag and close it.  Then place it in the envelope along with the printout of the form from the Order Status area described above.  If you do not follow these directions the US Postal Service may throw out your envelope due to smell and we cannot issue you a credit.

Saltwaterfish.com goes to great lengths to ensure that you receive the highest possible quality of live fish, corals, and invertebrates.  Our fish go through a specialized acclimation and quarantine process that allows them to be in peak health when they are ready to be shipped to our customers.  We use the top fish collectors and suppliers from around the world who play an important role in providing our customers with nothing but the best.  We are very serious about the live fish, corals, and invertebrates we offer and we know that our customers are just as serious about the investment of time and money they have in their aquarium.  We take every step possible to provide our customers with the best possible livestock beginning at the collection process all the way to the time your order arrives at your front door.  Every fish, invertebrate, and coral is closely inspected by our experienced Live Goods Managers so they arrive to you in peak condition.  

Saltwaterfish.com has been shipping live saltwater fish and corals with FedEx since 1999.  We use high-priced bag clipping machines to ensure that the oxygenated bags you receive retain the oxygen that was placed in them at time of shipping.  Each item is packed with its own requirements and specifications based on experience from years of shipping live goods overnight.  Each order is then placed inside a thick styrofoam cooler that insulates the contents from any damage or extreme temperatures.  This secure box is then placed into a corrugated box that further secures the safety of your new purchase. 

If you follow Saltwaterfish.com's detailed Acclimation Procedure (available through the button on the left side of the page) you will find your success in keeping marine life will increase dramatically.  This method allows for the fish, coral, or invertebrate to adjust to your aquarium parameters at a pace that is acceptable for that particular animal.  The recommended acclimation time for every item Saltwaterfish.com offers is listed on the description page for that item.  We want you to have a great experience with both Saltwaterfish.com and the hobby in general.  Saltwaterfish.com takes great pride in providing its customers with nothing but the best. 

Our guarantee has been in place since 1999 and we can make this guarantee because we have every confidence that our live goods will thrive in your system if they are provided the proper saltwater environment including water chemistry, compatibility, and tank setup, all of which are the hobbyist's responsibility.  These important topics can be discussed or searched for on the 45,000+ member Message Board Saltwaterfish.com provides as a free service.  While we take extra steps to ensure the items you receive are the best you've ever experienced they are still live creatures and as with any live animal they are susceptible to disease or can even perish.  If this occurs during the guarantee period we have developed this easy-to-follow process. 

Saltwaterfish.com ships year around at all temperature ranges.  Destination temperatures for each individual package are determined daily and Cool Packs or Heat Packs are included for free when necessary.  Saltwaterfish.com has been shipping with FedEx during all temperature ranges since 1999, including to Alaska in the dead of winter.  The Saltwaterfish.com Guarantee is valid for all temperatures. 

Money Back Guarantee

Saltwaterfish.com also offers a Money Back Guarantee if any item does not arrive alive.  The only live goods items that don't qualify for the Money Back Guarantee (although they still qualify for the 15 Day Guarantee) are invertebrates that live in a connecting shell (Hermits, Snails, Conchs).  If for some reason an item arrives DOA you can either have the amount of that item refunded to your card or we can issue the credit towards your Saltwaterfish.com Online Account.  An item that is part of a Reef Package will be refunded based on its value as part of that particular package.  To qualify for the Money Back Guarantee:

We must be notified that something did not survive via email within 5 hours of the FedEx delivery time by filling out the form located in the Order Status area of the website.  This is a time sensitive document and it must be filled out in 5 hours. 

If for any reason any live fish, coral, or invertebrate arrives dead upon arrival just return it by visiting the Order Status area of the website and logging onto your account.  In your account area, next to the order, is a link which will allow you to notify us of any dead animals, request a credit or refund, and determine the amount of the refund due.  Simply fill out this form, submit it, and print a copy of the form to send along with the dead animal.  The form must be included when returning animals to receive credit on any returns, and please note that the form is time sensitive.   The form must be filled out within 5 hours of FedEx delivery in order to receive a refund, and 15 days of delivery to receive a store credit.  This quick and easy procedure will allow you to keep us informed of the status of your order, while not burdening you with unnecessary paperwork and calculations.
