Guide To Posting Fish...

[smithrc]

Hi folks...

I'm about to bite the bullett and ship some of my plcs and fry.

I'm pretty sure I'll be ok pacing and shipping them but though a guide would be good to see on here
I thought there was but cant find one.

I'm going to be posting a group of 5 mature L129 lecs (about 4" each)

So far I have a poly box that is approx 12L internal.
I intend to duble pag the fish and padd the rest out with news paper to keep everything in place.
I'll use an air pump to put 'air' into the bags rather than breathing out into them.

Then there is the issue of heat packs.. I've never used these so will need advice on this bit... how many - where to put them etc (I've seen them taped inside the lids on imported fish - is that a good place?)

Once this one is done and dusted, I'll be looking at shipping Bristlenose fry so advice on smaller scale packaging would be good to

Over to you...

I wish I had known about you before I came down today as I would have loved to have a look at your fish for sale. I like the look of plec's. However, I will never be coming to MK again. I made myself flipping dizzy on all those roundabouts and got thoroughly lost until someone explained the road system to me. Easy to find your way if you know about the letter and numbers
Hopefully you will learn how to post them cos if I want to buy anything from you it'll have to be posted. My head's still spinning.
