Shipping fish?

Btw, even if you do find a way to ship it, it is going to cost a fortune!

You might be better off to get an estimate and then see if the buyer is willing to pay that to you if you bring it yourself, and then take a road trip. Should make a bit of extra cash.

Yes,a two foot plus fish is going to need quite a bit of water which will cost a quite a bit in weight.Airport to airport might be a better option.

Cost of shippig airport to airport might be less than $200.
To ship Fed-X or the USPO in the proper size box, and amount of water might run $500 just to ship within a 24 hour time period, and if you shipped longer, the fish would probably die.

Yep, he was in there with a large pleco and 15" Midas. I started moving fish around and I didn't want to add him in the 240. He would've eaten a lot of my investment. Once he's gone, that frees up both tanks
