Hi everyone, I was hoping you guys could help me with something. I just bought some new tanks. I got a 55g which came with large fish I have 2 catfish 12-14" long and 2 pleco's 6" or so. I've posted them here on the classifieds and on cragslist people keep emailing me wanting me to ship them. Is it possible? I ship small fish a good bit but I'm not seeing these fish making it in bags. I read somewhere about putting pleco's in tupperware? but I'm not sure about that.

My local stores don't want them. I fell bad for them they need a much bigger tank I just don't know what to do with them.

Thanks for the help.
 
Best way to do it would be to buy some really big bags and shop airport to airport for the shortest possible shipping time. Large fish tend to have a hard time with shipping.
