Default Buying large fish tanks and shipping to hawaii...

Hello everybody! I'm new here and come all the way from Hawaii! Well im posting because I am in need of a larger fish tank for my ever growing fishies! Well coming from the middle of the pacific comes a price and that is pretty much everything is soo much more expensive than on the mainland USA. Well I was just wondering if its possible to ship a large fish tank to Hawaii and if possible how much would it would be?

Mahalos!

Yes we've done it several times but as you know it's expensive.

What size are you thinking about?

No not at all, items which are not oversized can ship UPS or post office based upon weight.

However, as I'm sure you're aware we must use 2nd day or air.
