Only in bag for about 1 hour and seems to be ok they have not aten since about Thursday since they were going to travel... everyone at tsa was amazed lol and airlines no one seen many people travel with fishes.... but they seen penguins. And everything else... interesting i said these are 5 yrs old and are now laying eggs... and are probably worth about $300 now i paid $200 and now they are laying eggs so cant leave them....

reyc September 4, 2017 Author Share September 4, 2017 Cool setup. Did they test the water at all? Nope not in boston. If they open the bag i heard is. Bad for them.. they looked at it.. i took the rocks out and they put it through the X-rays and the hot pack... it couldn't be a gel hot pack. good thing i got like a beads one. •Just got a new Rimless deep blue 57 gallon tank with t5 programmable led's! with blk stand - im in the MD AREA• NooB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treesprite September 5, 2017 Share September 5, 2017 How much rubble is it? A couple pieces isn't enough. Use some kind of bacteria kick-starter. When I have set up tanks in a rush, I used a standard amount of liverock in them, and used Probibio Biodigest to kickstart bacteria growth (I'm sure there are less expensive options).

sen5241b September 6, 2017 Share September 6, 2017 Dumb question: you microwaved the water before you put the fish in? TSA did not open the bag?! They could easily have told you that you can't bring liquid thru security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Origami September 6, 2017 Share September 6, 2017 Dumb question: you microwaved the water before you put the fish in? Ha! No, I think that he microwaved the heat pack. It was one of those kind that you can buy at the drug store that has moisture beads in it. You put them in the microwave and they warm up to provide moist heat to aching muscles.

reyc September 9, 2017 Author Share September 9, 2017 (edited) I Microwaved a heat pack lol... i bought live sand and i got about 3lbs of rubbish rocks i only got clown fishes for now... wont be adding anything for about 1 month maybe... i also got some small rocks about 6-7 pieces i will be taking a pic of tank and posting it here this weekend... also i had a tsa Friend help me through.. of course they did their job... they opened rocks bagged....there is no. Need to open bag with fishes in them.. you can clearly see through the clear bag... it could of killed them if they did that... the heat pack you want to get is the one with beads and not the gel beads ones... •Just got a new Rimless deep blue 57 gallon tank with t5 programmable led's! with blk stand - im in the MD AREA• NooB Edited September 9, 2017 by reyc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Origami September 11, 2017 Share September 11, 2017 Get an ammonia badge and put it in the tank to continuously monitor for ammonia. That's likely going to be your biggest threat. Get some more fully-cycled live rock in their, too. In a pinch, you can find an ammonia badge at PetSmart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
