Your farm-fresh fish is always delivered within a few hours of harvest. The fish is cleaned (scaled and gutted), packed individually and kept properly chilled during delivery from our farm to your home. You can keep it in the chiller if intended for use within 2-3 days. Many of our customers also freeze their fish immediately upon delivery - the quality remains good even after a few weeks when kept well frozen.

Q9. Tell me more about the prices/weights of the fish?
Our prices are on a per fish basis, in Singapore dollars. The weight range stated (e.g. "700g-800g") is the approximate weight for the whole fish at harvest. Note that scaled and gutted fish generally weighs 15-23% less than the at-harvest weight.
On rare occasions, individual fishes may fall slightly below the stated range due to harvesting constraints. These same constraints may also lead to customers getting bigger fishes (above stated range) sometimes!
