    they wont die. the send them in bags with a blue stunning agent (like super de-chlor). thats how all fish stores get them, with many in the same bags and styrofoam boxes from other countries. they can usually stay in the bags and arrive healthy for 24-36 hours.

  3. well yes the wrap up the fish and put them in a envelope in the mail lol. Well all good sites put the fish in a polythene travel bags filled with oxygen then tightly packed in a cardboard box and shipped via truck not by standard mail, i know this because i have been around when fish have been shipped to various freinds and my local pet store.

    Yer fish wont die. You shouldnt order from anyone that doesnt guarantee delivery of live fish RIGHT?

    The put the fish in a bag with clean water. The bag is filled about 1/3 water, 2/3 air and tied off. These should be double-bagged so if one bag pops, the other one will prevent it from leaking.

    These bags are then put into a styrofoam lined box and packed with newspaper (usually). You can then add a heatpack if needed. Seal up the box and your fish will be shipped overnight to their destination. These are not always shipped by truck. Most times they go on a plane.

    As long as the bags are sealed and kept at an adequate temperature, the fish will be fine for a couple days.
