Details
Capture the expansive beauty of a tropical reef with our Tropical Paradise Fishbowl. This 14oz masterpiece isn't just a candle; it’s a vivid, hand-poured "aquarium" that glows from within. Housed in a charming round fishbowl glass, each candle features a meticulously curated seascape of real beach sand, hand-picked seashells, and delicate starfish, all suspended in crystal-clear gel.
Why It’s a Game Changer:
- Double the Glow: Because gel wax is mineral oil-based, it burns up to twice as long as soy or paraffin. Enjoy approximately 80 hours of serene, ocean-inspired light.
- You Pick the Scent: Customize your escape! Whether you crave the saltiness of the sea or the sweetness of the tropics, the fragrance is entirely up to you.
- Art That Matters: With every purchase, a portion of our sales is donated to animal rescue and wildlife charities. You’re not just lighting up your home; you’re helping protect the creatures that share our planet.
- Handcrafted in Small Batches: Every "fish tank" is unique, ensuring your piece of paradise is one-of-a-kind.

Product Specifications

- Dimensions: 3.5" Wide x 3.5" High (Round Fishbowl Shape)
- Burn Time: Approx. 80+ Hours (Longest lasting in our collection!)

Candle Care (Preserving the Paradise)
- The Perfect Trim: Keep your wick trimmed to 1/4" before every light to ensure the flame stays small and the gel remains crystal clear.
- Clear Sight: Burn within sight at all times. The fishbowl shape provides a beautiful wide glow, but always keep it on a heat-resistant surface.
- The "Oil Candle" Secret: Since gel is essentially mineral oil, the flame is steady and soot is minimal. Simply sit back and watch the light dance through the shells.
The Journey
1. Processing Time
- Small Batches Take Time: Please allow 3–5 business days for us to craft, cure, and package your candles.
- Personalized Orders: For "Secret Message" or custom concrete candles, processing may take up to 7 business days to ensure the perfect finish.
- We ship Monday through Friday. Orders placed on weekends or holidays will be processed starting the next business day.
2. Estimated Shipping Rates (Domestic US)
Shipping is calculated at checkout based on total weight and destination. Here is a general guide:
- Light (Under 1 lb): 1 Small Candle (4 oz-8 oz): $5.95
- Standard (1 lb – 5 lbs): 2-4 Medium Jars or 1 Boat Candle: $10.50
- Heavy (Over 5 lbs): Large Gift Sets / Bulk Orders: $18.00
- Orders Over $75: Any combination: FREE SHIPPING
3. Delivery Estimates
Once your order leaves our Texas studio, standard shipping typically takes 3–7 business days to arrive, depending on your location.
4. The "Summer Melt" Policy
Soy wax is natural and has a lower melting point than paraffin. During hot summer months, soy candles can "sweat" or soften if left in a hot mailbox or on a porch for too long.
- Pro Tip: Please try to retrieve your package as soon as it arrives.
- If your candle feels soft, let it sit at room temperature for a few hours before lighting. This is a natural characteristic of eco-friendly wax and does not affect the scent or quality!
5. Tracking Your Magic
The moment your candles are on their way, you will receive a shipping confirmation email with a tracking number. You can track the order directly from the carrier's website.
6. Damaged or Lost Packages
We pack our candles like they’re fragile glass—because they are! However, if the journey was a bit too rough and your candle arrives broken:
- Take a photo of the damaged item and the packaging.
- Email us at contact@wickwondershop.com within 48 hours of delivery.
- We will send out a replacement or issue a credit immediately.
Our Promise
1. Returns & Exchanges
We want you to love your scent. If you’ve changed your mind:
- Unused Candles: We accept returns or exchanges for candles in their original, unused, and unlit condition within 14 days of delivery.
- Used Candles: To maintain our quality standards, we cannot accept returns or offer refunds for candles that have been lit or used.
- Personalized Items: Because "Secret Message" candles and custom boat candles are made specifically for you, they are final sale and cannot be returned unless they arrive damaged.
2. Damage Control (The "Arrival" Guarantee)
Candles are fragile, and sometimes the journey is a little bumpy. If your candle arrives broken or damaged:
- Please email us at contact@wickwondershop.com within 48 hours of delivery.
- Include a photo of the damaged candle and the shipping box.
- We will send you a replacement free of charge or issue a full refund immediately. The Wonder must arrive undamaged!
3. Return Shipping
- For standard returns (if you changed your mind), the customer is responsible for the return shipping costs.
- We recommend using a trackable shipping service, as we cannot guarantee that we will receive your returned item.
- Original shipping costs are non-refundable.
4. Refunds
Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you. If approved, your refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your original method of payment account within 3-5 business days.
5. Scent Disclaimer
Choosing scents online can be tricky! While we do our best to describe our fragrances accurately, everyone’s nose is a little different. We do not offer refunds if you simply don't "like" the scent after the candle has been lit.
- Pro Tip: If you’re unsure, start with our 4 oz jars before committing to a larger centerpiece!
