Fish Bag 8" x 19"
Clear plastic fish bag suitable for the transport of fish - we recommend using 2 bags. This is the safest and most appropriate way to transport fish.
Bagging fish is an art form in itself, but not terribly difficult. There should never be more than one species per bag and aggressive species such as cichlids should be packed just one fish per bag. The bags should contain only 30% water and the rest should be air, with the bag fully inflated. You can achieve this without compressed air by holding the bag upright and then grippping the top of the bag tightly, push the air downwards until the bag appears inflated. It should be firm when you squeeze it. It may seem like there's not enough water, but the water itself is not nearly as important as the compressed air. Experience across the industry has shown that Betta, for example, travel better in just 250-300ml of water than they would in a much larger volume. Every business does things their own way. Some add carbon, whilst others add zeolite. We also add Easy-Life filter medium as an extra boost. The bags should be covered by bubble wrap or other materials, not only to cushion them, but also to partially block light when the box is opened.
