You can use an old fish food container, anything with a screw lid that won't leak, preferably plastic.
Hi,
I guess I am heading towards using the Gladware taped around the edges with styrofoam peanuts inside too keep the invert from rocking too much then packed in a box with paper towels! Does that sound ok?

So, I will get the packing stuff then cut the mushrooms and let them stick to some gravel so I will know they are ok. They will be 3 inches wide when I cut them. They get big in my tank. They are smaller if you have metal halide. How many paly's can you send and will they be loose or on a rock? I will put the erythropodium in a separate container.

I can use my digi and film cameras to get the pics. Just shoot them on an angle. Scroll down where it says 'Attach files' and find the location on your pc.

Tiberius the bta is about the size of a plum i had him floating in a cup for a couple of days and this morning the cup was tipped over(guess he wanted out of the cup). so he's in the tank somewhere just haven't found him yet. are they easy enough to get off the rocks if they get attatched. cause i have 2 other one that are big 1 is about 4-5 " across and the other is about 5-6 " across both are attached to big rocks. 1 clown goes in one and the other clown goes in the other one so not sure if i should take those out or not but theyy might split to.

Hi
I wouldn't want to take away the clownfishes home! I could wait till they split or if you find the missing one before he gets attached. I am not sure about the damage you can cause by removing it from a rock. With my mushrooms, I can just use a razor and cut them close to the rock. But, I would think with an anemone, you would have to roll it off with your fingers if you do find that missing one and he wasn't stuck for long.

Sure, that will be fine. Just please post your email so I can send you my address. You don't need to worry about bringing your critters yet. Have you cut shrooms off a rock before?

Yes i have cut many shrooms off of rocks before. I just cut up some chocolate shrooms about a week ago and glued them to piece of tonga the other night.

I forgot about the erythropodium, 2 or 3 mushrooms is good, save some for others.
I'll send you pink and green paly's and green mushroom. I can dig up some other frags if it doesn't seem fair.
thanks
