I finally got my fishermans license yesterday went fishing and caught a few small fish.. So now I have a question... How do you keep fish alive? I want to start a small native aquarium but they died on the ride home... I know I will probably have more questions but I read you guys posts all the time and there seem to be alot of great anglers here to help...

Make sure to have an air stone, they usually have them in there. Get extra batteries as well, they usually last 36 hours.
Keep the bucket of fish out of direct sun if possible and frequently replenish the water with new water from where you caught it from. Right before you leave, fill it up as much as possible with fresh water, put the bubblers on there and haul arse home. I drilled several holes in the lid of my bucket for the airlines.
I have one of these buckets, the lids screws on and has an o-ring so if it tips, the water wont spill and you can latch the bubblers to the side on the extra rim space. 6.5 US Gallon Bucket with Screw-on Lid

So which stores can I buy the portable aerator in, or do I have to purchase one online? And I have been learning the laws they gave me the michigan dnr fishing book when I got the license
