~LadyBug~ Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 I've got a rock with ricordia, yuma and mushrooms that I need to ship; it's small, 6-8 inches by 6 inches, probably a pound or less. But I'm worried about it poking through bags and it's too big for something like a jar. Any ideas? What does everyone else do when shipping coral rocks? Link to comment
disaster999 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 double bag with thick gauge plastic bags or cut up a ziplock back and losely wrap the rock with the plastic before putting it inside the bag with water. double bag that for extra protection. Link to comment

Good idea to cut up the bag. Thanks! I'm definitely double/triple bagging Link to comment
gulfsurfer101 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Wrap the rock in heavy duty non printed paper towels before wrapping it in plastic. Link to comment
~LadyBug~ Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 Wrap the rock in heavy duty non printed paper towels before wrapping it in plastic. I thought about that, it's what I do with macro algae, but I wasn't sure how the corals would like it... Link to comment
gulfsurfer101 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Zoas and shrooms do fine. I've recieved zoas just wrapped in wet paper towels before that did just fine with no real water in the bag. Link to comment
