November 8th 05, 07:18 PM
Hi all, I have a qustion of how should I transport fish here in middle
canada durring the winter. I do not have a car so I rely on crapy public
transportation. I am interested in getting some zebra loaches from my
LFS but am worried about them getting to cold in transport. This store
dose double bag the fish so there is some insolation, is it enough for
say 20 min outside at -10c?
Thank you

For only a few zebra loaches on a bus, use a soft insulated lunch box to
keep the fish bag. If you have room, you could add a small deflated fish
bag with warm water to place beside the bag with the fish. hth

====================
Hold them UNDER your coat while in transit. That's what I did before I was
old enough to have a car. It worked well in the winter.
