Breathable bags

[Evan]

Anyone have experience with breathable bags for shipping?

Anyone have a good source?


Thanks

For discus? I would assume that they are worthless because of the single bag unless you are shipping very small fish. Spines on the dorsal fish would puncture the bag. They work well for guppies and Bettas and such.

I baught 7 baby Severums at a convention last year. They were bagged in breathable bags on Thursday and stayed with me in the hotel till Sunday. They went into my tank on Sunday evening. The fish were fine. I checked the ammonia and nitrite. Ammonia was a little high but nitrite was 0. The fish are nearly one year old and show signs of any problems.
I have no experience with shipping discus in these dags. I would think the ammonia spike might be a problem.
These bags are marketed by Kordon.

thanks guys.

I was a little worried about the single bag thing. All my fish are full size so I guess I will go with regular bags.
