**What types of fish does Amanda's Aquatics specialize in?**

We specialize in wild-caught native Florida fish, especially the Gulf Coast Pygmy Sunfish (Elassoma gilberti). All our fishes are sustainably sourced and carefully acclimated to ensure their health and well-being. 

**Can Amanda's Aquatics assist in determining suitable gender ratios for breeding or observing purposes?**

Absolutely, we can offer personalized advice on gender ratios and breeding/display selection. With a 99% gender ID accuracy, we can help you create the perfect balance for breeding or simply observing in your aquarium.

**How does Amanda's Aquatics package and ship the fish?**

Our expertise in professional packaging and shipping protocols ensures the live arrival of your fish. We follow a 5-day handling procedure that includes preparation and fasting of the fish. We ship on Mondays via USPS Priority 2-4 days unless otherwise arranged. Please note, we always include extra fish and offer a live arrival guarantee. If all fish arrive deceased, we replace them for the cost of shipping only.

**What is the current status of Amanda's Aquatics' fieldwork or documentary?**

Our fieldwork and documentary filming are ongoing, reflecting our commitment to sustainability, education, and care for Florida's ecosystems. We encourage curiosity and questions about our research and fieldwork. For updates on our educational content and research, please inquire or follow us on our eBay page.

**What happens if there are shipping issues or if the fish arrive dead on arrival (DOA)?**

We take every measure to ensure our fish arrive alive and well. However, in the unfortunate event of a shipping issue or DOA, we offer a live arrival guarantee. We include extra fish in each shipment, but if all arrive deceased, we replace the fish for the cost of shipping only. We maintain direct, empathetic communication to address any problems should they arise.
