coolers/bins, buckets, or bags ?

[fishytime]

I have the fun task of moving 15 fish tomorrow and Im wondering what you guys would use to transport your finned friends and why.....I have a range of fish from 2" up to a 5" tang..... I have the means and supplies to do any of the above....I should mention that the whole process will likely take about 7 hours

Buckets with battery bubblers for sure.

If you need any extra buckets let me know .. I have "bunch of them" I could donate to the cause...

[fishytime]

thanks for the offer Tony....I have all the containers I will need....no B.O.Bs though:neutral:

[Delphinus]

Big Als might have some maybe (and would still be open right now?) .. Or Pisces maybe .. ?

Do you have access to O2?

Small cigarette plug power invertor to power a 110v air pump?


Dont forget to crank the heat up

Do you have access to O2?

no sir

[sphelps]

I'd do bags with lots of air space if I had the choice, pack the bags in coolers and be done with it. I believe this actually works better at storing oxygen than buckets even without pure O2. 7 hours isn't that long, wouldn't bother with heaters or air bubblers.

I've used buckets for 3 hours, fish died...

[Delphinus]

Wonder if you could rent a tank from a medical gas place.

I've kept fish and corals in a cooler for 2 days using an inverter powering a heater and powerhead. Might be an option for you.

50hrs for a cleaner shrimp and a neon goby in bags with oxygen for me...

[FishyFishy!]

I got a power inverter with 2 plugs. One for heater and one for a bubbler or powerhead. Let me know if you want to borrow it mang.
