i think this one is directed to me. use an appropriate number of pails. these where 5 gallon pails from home depot i have 100 of them. multiple fish to the pail unless large or aggressive / active. yes they where in a heated van riding shotgun at that ( kept van a little warmer than i like to)

The way you wrote this makes it sound like you bought my fish and you were not the guy.

It's okay, I am just beyond upset over this and my nerves are rather raw and exposed. It is a very hard thing to have to live with.

All I can say is the fish were in exceptional health when they left my house... The people caught them and transported them... what do you want from me? I know damned well they would all still be alive and well if they were still here.

So how about getting back on topic and contributing to how to correctly transport fish?

Sorry but I can't believe you would post this.... for any other reason but to call the guy out on it.

And you had a responsibility in it too... you let them go.

With all due respect, the OP has made her point. What transpired is certainly tragic to any and all who appreciate our hobby, or any others that involve beloved pets.

Canreef staffers have chimed in and agreed that a sticky would be considered based on further input.

Mods....really? How many more pages does this need to continue? It is becoming redundant and tiring.

I am truly sorry for this loss of life but enough is enough.
