Packing and shipping are charged per box, not per coral. The $15 packing fee covers the insulated box, heat or ice packs and the time it takes to pack live coral safely; overnight UPS is the carrier cost of getting it out of Key West alive. A box typically holds around five small frags, so adding compatible corals to the same shipment usually will not add another packing or shipping charge. Larger colonies, species that cannot share water, or extreme weather can require a second box. Orders over $399 ship free.

Florida: $30 overnight livestock shipping. Qualifying Florida livestock orders under 6 lb ship overnight for a flat $30, plus the $15 packing fee. Heavier or mixed shipments use our standard overnight rate, and orders over $399 ship free either way.

Livestock ships to the continental US. Alaska needs a shipping quote before you order, and we cannot ship coral to Hawaii — get in touch first.

Description

Alveopora carries twelve tentacles per polyp to goniopora’s twenty-four — the quick ID — and this one is a clean, even mint green. This coral thrives in moderate light and flow, making it suitable for aquarists of all experience levels. The Spearmint Alveopora not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your underwater landscape but also provides a habitat for small fish and invertebrates, contributing to the overall biodiversity of your tank. Its stunning coloration and hardiness make it a fantastic addition to any coral collection.
