Grass Carp are also available for pickup at our retail location.
Smith Creek Fish Farm is centrally located in Western New York about an hour's drive from Buffalo and Rochester. The hatchery and retail pond supply outlet have seasonal hours for fish pickup and walk-in customers.
Our expert fish packers will oxygen bag your fish for easy, safe, and stress-free transport. We do suggest bringing coolers or totes to hold your bagged fish. Truck delivery of trout, game fish, and forage is available in the WNY area when orders meet our delivery minimums.
We also safely ship, by FedEx Next Day Air, many of our fish species including triploid grass carp and crayfish. Unfortunately, we ONLY ship fish to New York addresses. All of our fish are 2023 NY DEC certified disease-free and have been for more than 13 years in a row.
Certified Triploid Grass Carp shipped UPS the next day to your door (Monday-Thursday). New York DEC Grass Permit for 2023 is required and we can only ship to NY addresses. Pickup from our Bliss, NY facility is also an option.
Larger orders can be delivered by truck. Triploid Grass Carp are shipped safely in a double-wall corrugated box with insulation and ice packs when temperatures are above 80 degrees.
The grass carp or white amur, a vegetarian, is a natural alternative or addition to chemicals for aquatic weed control. In many situations, stocking Triploid Grass Carp is more cost-effective than chemical applications.
The Grass Eating Carp is a native of China and has been used for more than 700 years to control excessive aquatic weed growth. Grass carp should not be confused with common carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). The white amur has a silvery green body and no barbels, whereas the common carp is golden yellow and has barbels and is the same species as koi.
