Where can I get Arag-Alive or Similar Live Sand?

My LFS had some, but sold it to another guy and said that they are having trouble getting more. I have looked online, but it is $21 plus shipping. (About $30 for a 20 pound bag delivered via FedEx Ground). Since this stuff has a long shelf life, would ground delivery be OK?

It has a 6 or 9 month shelf life. So far it's doin good in my tank.

What about shipping? Does it need to be shipped special, (heat/cool, overnight, etc)?
I am excited about trying this product out from this site.

I don't think that it would need to be overnighted, seeing as though it has a 9 month shelf life. It might have be slightly heated. But it works nicely. I still havent noticed any huge effects of it, but so far, its goin good.
