Live Arrival Guarantee (LAG) We take immense pride in our cultivation process. We guarantee that all live cultures (Copepods and Phytoplankton) will arrive alive and healthy.
Claims Process In the rare event of a DOA (Dead on Arrival):
Non-Returnable Items Due to the biological nature of our products and strict biosecurity protocols, we cannot accept returns on live cultures once they have been delivered. This ensures that no outside contaminants ever enter our facility.
Cancellations Orders can be cancelled for a full refund at any time before the shipping label has been created. Once a live order is in the hands of the carrier, it is final.
Biological Shipping Schedule To ensure the highest viability of our live cultures, we ship Monday through Wednesday. Orders placed Thursday–Sunday will be dispatched the following Monday. This prevents your Phyto or Copepods from being held in carrier facilities over the weekend.
