Shipping Tropheus

[judyok]

Yes the safety of the fish is what I have in mind so I'll do what it takes.

Good to hear! If you were close I'd pack them for you.

Well I thought I would give an update I shipped out the 16 Tropheus Ilangi and used pure oxygen and Delta Air and all arrived live and well. Phew! what a relief and thank you for the advice. I just wanted to add a little extra info from what I've learned about oxygen tanks and torches. The one you gave a link to was for propane tanks and my son was a welder in the past and he said it won't work with oxygen tanks because the threads run in the opposite direction. I guess the want to make sure you don't use a torch meant for propane on an oxygen tank. I'm including this link to the product I bought at Lowe's that does work and I'm sure Home Depot probably carries it as well.

Thanks again for your help, the oxygen I'm sure made the difference.

Awesome! Glad it worked out and thanks for the update.

Sorry about the wrong product but glad I was able to point you in the right direction and get those fish delivered safely.

Planning on doing any more adult fish shipping?

Not planning on shipping any adult fish, but I'll know what to do next time.

Makes sense.
