    Dan, I love that you post this on youtube to keep your suppliers accountable and customers in the loop. It is so hard to find responsible fish retailers who don't accept the usual cruel shipping practices that can plague fish farms and some breeding operations. As an animal lover of all kinds, it makes me feel good to buy from somebody who actually cares about the welfare animals and not just their retail or ornamental value.

    One thing I did notice on a recent shipment was that you wrap brown paper around the heat packs. So on unboxing they were cold to the touch but when I unwrapped them and exposed them to air they heated up. I know they respond to the air so not sure but I think attaching them to the lid like your unboxing may be the way to go. Just some feedback from a customer.

    If you don’t perforate the box lid the packs don’t work. You end up using two to three times as many, and they don’t last as long. However, that hole was huge.

    Always have my fingers crossed for your German shipments. There's a few cory species that only they really breed, (cochui, benattii). Was watching my Limia Perugiae (BdC) I got from you in December while I listened to this vid. Dominant male is displaying for my females, subdominant is practicing on the rest of my fish. Wonderfully pretty little fish. Wish they flared that dorsal fin sail and revealed the bright blue flash on your vids. I had no idea how pretty these would look when I purchased them. Pygmy Swordtail pair is still going strong, too.

    Those holes in the styro are necessary to keep heat packs activated. The heat pack needs oxygen to burn. If you seal the box tight your heat pack will arrive not activated and box will be just as there was not any heat pack at all. I have routinely receive packing like that. Most of the time fish lived. They do not do that bad in low temps. Metabolism is really slow so water quality by excretion is reduced. In may water in the lake was so cold that divers were out of water within thirty minutes. Lake Malawi. Consequently I put the heat pack in my pocket and i got warm for what ever the heat pack was designed to go for.
    Cory is difficult fish to ship. For un known reason they almost instantly pollute their water. I would pack the fish and did not sent them anywhere. Just checked water quality within 4 hors increments. Already in 4 hours water had a milky color and by next day it was pretty terrible. Nothing to be done about it.
    Monitoring water within transit is pointless. I was shipping fish from the lake Malawi. In our house on the shore was 96. In London where they were transferred to another flight to Germany was snow on the ground. By7 the time they arrived to germany they were pretty cold. but alive. We never lost fish because they were cold even after days after arrival. Point being here is that heat packs cannot be used while your starting temps is nineties. None of or shipment would not past Dans testing.
