How large are they? You will need high O2 content athosphere if you do not have breather bags. I have only shipped smaller fish, nothing large. Saltwater correct?

However $13.00 for 100 of them is a bit much unless you will actually use them all. If you PM me your address I can send you 4 of them for the puffers.

I sold a figure 8 puffer on ebay for $9, a leopard puffers is a bit more uncommon so you can proably get more, expect to get more then you paid for him at the petstore.

When I get home I can setup a brackish tank for them if you still have them. Can you hold on to them for another 3-4 weeks? I cant really pay for them but I cant take them off your hands. I dont really have the best facilites, however, not alot of room. If you dont wanna sell on ebay. Have you checked with the LFS to see if they will take them back for a bit of $ in credit.

Yes just take the box to the post office, they are usually cheaper then UPS. Jsut remember, when people pay for the fish they arn't happy if they dont make it :P
