The Journey To Bringing My Imported Halfmoon Home

[Mamashack]

Got the Youtube video on the thread, atti, didn't want to startle him with flashing cameras until he's settled in a bit. Hopefully if I can get a decent photo or 3 I'll post some tomorrow!

I have received notification that my fish has left Thailand! Woo!

Awesome how exciting!!

 

[attibones]

I'll have him in 48 hours!

 

[Shelster]

Do you know how much water he is shipped in etc? - did they specify his packaging?

 

[attibones]

I don't know how the transhipper is sending him. He said that he will change the water before shipping him from Florida, so he won't be in too much ammonia. Plus, I'm doing express shipping. I don't know how much water will be in his bag. When my rams were mailed to me. They were in individual Kordon (or whatever) breather bags with about "four shot glasses" of water in them. My catfish were shipped with much more water in their regular bags. I do know that the bag will be packed in a styrofoam box with a heat pack.

I have no idea how the seller will ship the fish to the States. I know that he's on an airplane.

Counting down the hours now, atti!

 

[attibones]

I know! So exciting! Tomorrow after my job interview (at a humane society), I'm going to pick up a few more snails and maybe some shrimp, put them in a holding tank and then do my water change. Tomorrow I have more plants coming in the mail so I'll have them planted too. I will definitely post pictures of the progress tomorrow.

Wooohoo almost better than Christmas Eve! lol

 

[attibones]

Pants, it's worse than Christmas Eve. At least then, you have a whole bunch of awful family gatherings to burn daylight. I only have homework to bide my time now.

 

[Mamashack]

Oh well you can kill 2 birds with 1 stone then! lol

 

[attibones]

It won't be long, yeah, yeah, yeah. It won't be long yeah, yeah, yeah.

I'm so excited I'm singing.
