I believe the reason people arent getting exited at this deal is because of the shipping.
 
that won't all fit in a large flat rate box?

Nope, 'fraid not. That's why I left the option of getting just part of the package. If you wanted something like just the terrarium plants and fruit fly culture, it'd be about $5 if you don't mind the flies not having an insulated package, and about $7 for an insulated box with ice pack (the extra couple ounces makes a big difference with priority mail).
If you wanted everything but the pipes, and possibly fly culture, it would fit in a large flat rate box.

If the OP says it won't fit, it means it won't fit.:huh: I'm sure as many times as it has been mentioned, the OP has tried and determined that it's not going to happen.

Yup. thanks.

If folks don't believe it, they can do the math. The pvc pipes are 4" diameter, so if they're laying flat in a box they take up 4". A large flat rate box is 5.5" tall. That leaves 1.5" over the pipes. There's just enough room on the sides and in between the pipes for the air pump and most of the marbles provided that the plants are stuffed inside the pipes to ship. That leaves the rest of the marbles, the gravel, and a 32oz fly culture.
 
Have you tried putting some of the supplies IN the pvc?
