    Thanks Gresh, your frags are all diong very well! You'd be a proud Pappa!

    Good to know about the limited durability pf the Kordon bags and will take special care when shipping frags. May limit it to softies as acros and hard corals may puncture. Is it possible to double bag for more durability?

    IM me if you wat to mail me a few of the bags and I'll give you my address!

    Thanks again!

    I actually feel you can ship most corals and inverts, you just need to take extra care. You can still use the baffle/liner technique as well as all the othe methods like hanging from stryo floats. I've been told you can't double bag them, but that shouldn't stop you from trying. I'll IM you for your address and ship you some bags for yourself and others. I'm not to sure of sizes, I'll have to sort them out.

    When I used to sell frags on reefcentral and reefs.org while back I used these and they are great! I would use small coolers that were smaller than 1 foot square so fedex wouldn't charge dimentional weight and still could get like 10-12 frags packed in it. I used to get them from a guy on aquabid but that was like 2 years ago so I dont know if he is still there
