Struggle Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 What style and size of fish bags do y’all recommend for transporting fish? I’m not looking to ship fish but I’m wanting to get a variety of different sized bags for transporting locally, anywhere from apistogrammas to plecos to angels.

Administrators Cory Posted September 18, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 18, 2020 I'd recommend just buying some from your local fish store. I actually prefer transporting fish in buckets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Cory Posted September 18, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 18, 2020 We could, but shipping them is what makes them a liability. We ship everything priority mail, it only makes sense when they are shipped slower and cheaper which we don’t do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy's Fish Den Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I sell locally mainly smaller fish, shrimp and plants. The sizes I keep on hand are 4x16 and 6x18 or something around that, always 4" and 6", lengths sometimes vary depending on who I get them from. The usually just get 2mil thick ones, but if I am shipping anything spiny, such as corydoras or plecos I will double bag them. If you know that you will be shipping a bunch of spiny fish, there are thicker bags available. I usually buy them in packs of 100 off Aquabid or eBay.

Sometime you can get rubber bands with them, but I just pick up a bag of rubber bands at Walmart or someplace that sells office supplies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
