    *All methods and ideas discussed in this video are based on what has worked for me locally with my municipal water supply and my particular aquarium set ups. This might not work for your aquarium set up in your area with your local water supply. I take no responsibility for any of the ideas that might be used from this video that don't work out to your expectations.

    Paul,
    I love how you go to great lengths to insure the safety of the fish!
    Hopefully, when I set my next tank up, it will be graced by the presents of some of your apistos!

    • @robertreese2600
      @robertreese2600 Před 7 lety

      I think if you follow the instructions in this video, you will be just fine the fish should be ok. keep me informed though.

    • @robertreese2600
      @robertreese2600 Před 7 lety

      I am shipping to a guy on CZcams named inventory King. I'm going to try and get with him and make videos of me shipping the fish out and him receiving the fish provided it goes well LOL

    • @PaulsPlantedAquariums
      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 6 lety

    I've heard of a lot of peoples packages being rejected because of it being labeled with LIVE FISH. Have you ever had any problems with that?

    • @PaulsPlantedAquariums
      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 6 lety

      I'm Ugly And I'm Proud No, I always ship USPS flat rate shipping and had very few issues over the years..

  • @rosabellapinkheart3319

    Can you use Indian Almond leaves instead of the blue liquid? For a betta shipment. The leaf does the same as the blue liquid. Its a stress reliver and fights off bad bacteria.

    • @PaulsPlantedAquariums
      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 8 lety

      Good infomation.. I have heard that but I've not tried it. Thanks for your input.

    • @PaulsPlantedAquariums
      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 6 lety

      Rosabella Pinkheart Yes, the blue liquid is methylene blue.. thanks for tuning in..😅

  • @OliviaNguyen95

    • @paultrunick6806

      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 8 lety

      +Harsimer Malhan It's shipped dry in a bottle so all you do is add water: www.petsolutions.com/C/Bacterial-Fungus-Fish-Medications/I/Methylene-Blue-From-Fish-Vet.aspx

    Do you have to weigh your package to know how much it is to ship?

    • @Tallonest
      @Tallonest Před 4 lety

      Kellie K flag rate box means if it fits it ships, doesn’t matter the weight

  • @Mclovin371
    @Mclovin371 Před 8 lety

    After this video did you just drop the package off at the postal service, or did you pay another fee for the package to ship out? Please respond

    • @PaulsPlantedAquariums
      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 8 lety

      +Junior Thao I ship USPS Flat rate which is a set fee for small, Medium, and Large packages no weight limits (If it fits it Ships) I can give the package to my home carrier or take it to the Post office with no extra fees.

  • @Dwai2764
    @Dwai2764 Před 7 lety

    can we use air from air pump when packing the fish

    • @PaulsPlantedAquariums
      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 7 lety +1

      You could but it would be the same as the air in the room.

    • @Dwai2764
      @Dwai2764 Před 7 lety

      Pauls Planted Aquariums the fish would be in the bag for about 14 hours , should be okay ?

    • @PaulsPlantedAquariums
      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 7 lety +1

      When I ship fish they are usually in the bag for 72 + hours..

    are these fish easy to breed?

    • @PaulsPlantedAquariums
      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 8 lety

      If you are referring to the Apistogrammas Cacatouides, yes they are relatively easy to breed..

    Hi there to ship a guppy is a heat pack nesessary ?

    • @PaulsPlantedAquariums
      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 8 lety

      If the night time or low temperature's drop below 55 degrees F between were you ship from to were the fish is being shipped I would use a heat pack.

    • @sofiaosorio6376
      @sofiaosorio6376 Před 8 lety

      +Pauls Planted Aquariums would there be a problem if by any chance there is too much heat in the box ?

    • @PaulsPlantedAquariums
      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 8 lety

      Depends on how you like your fish, Fried or Parboiled?

  • @ma820guy3
    @ma820guy3 Před 4 lety

    No need to hand write “LIVE FISH” on you shipping boxes. You can purchase “LIVE FISH HANDLE WITH CARE” warning stickers on ebay. Here is a link, www.ebay.com/str/padsplus/Live-Fish/_i.html?_storecat=23686356017

      @PaulsPlantedAquariums  Před 6 lety

      If you're referring to insulation I use for packing, it is not Fiberglass! it is recycled denim and cardboard treated with a fire retardent...
