Fish shipping question

[michael stern]

How big a bag do you think I need to ship my 9-10" sohal?
Anyone have any experience? Is a 1 gallon bag big enough? Or do I need a much bigger one? Is the bigger the better, i.e. garbage bag?

Thanks

Michael, to ship the tang you'd need one of the huge bags they use to line the boxes. I would at least make 5 layers deep, and have it filled with oxygen at the LFS. I don't think it would be wise to send the fish otherwise.

It's a 2000 gallon reef. He's in the process of upgrading to 5,000. No SH!*.
