I am moving from NY to Florida in a few weeks. What is the best way to transport my 6 year-old RES?
Is there a safe way to pack and send her by overnight courier? How about shipping by commerical airline? Or drive her myself by car in a small travel aquarium, which would take a couple of days.

Any insights welcome.

the overnight shiping is the best....
first u feed them and put your res in a tube sock make sure the box says live animals inside and have holes in the sides. Over night is the only way that your res will survive the trip! Surprised call fedex or ups and ask about how they would handle it.

right back soon Razz
