aquaholic99 Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Fast your fish for at least 2 days before shipping. Most airline carriers require "seafood" grade fish boxes and charge by volume or weight (which ever is more expensive). All fish must be double bagged with usual 'Goose Neck' to conform with IATA standards. Label fish box well with receivers name, phone and airport. If you get stuck for oxygen, contact me. Your axylotyl's are doing well btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
