Anyone have experience shipping one fish?
I have a Blue Spotted Vlamingi tang, 5 1/2 inches long that one of our members wants to buy and have me ship.
I have the insulated box, bags, water, but I don't know what to do other than that.
Questions:
1. Do you drive it to the airport and ship it directly from their or will UPS/FedEx pick it up from you? What is the best?
2. Do I need to fill the bag with oxygen or air stone??
3. Should I put a disposable "hand" heater in the box?
Thoughts? Thank you
