i was gonna order some fish from saltwaterfish.com but i live in PA and was wondering if they have something so the fish stay warm and if they do if it has to be requested? has anyone from other cold weather states ever ordered fish from here and what did you do?

Yep, they have heat packs they pack in with the fish. They come in a styrofoam cooler inside a box. Very well packed and you can reuse the cooler for beer.....um.. I mean Cola.
My last oreder came in about 2 weeks ago. All live and well.

I received an order from swf.com last Friday, when it was 20 degrees here in Northern IL. Needless to say, even though the box was freezing on the outside, everything arrived alive, and is now thriving in the tank. The heat packs were still warm, and the cooler is now stocked with Miller Lite, umm...I mean Diet Coke. HTH

Several orders in both summer heat and winter and they are always packed properly for the temperature and weather in the area at the time of shipping.
