Probably talking about something like that. Searching Rubber fishnet brings up just about everything, but what I should be looking at at work....
(mods unless you guys think recreational fishing supplies are competition the link is ok)

NEXT STEP....Since I do not think I will have enough time tomorrow night.....I am starting to mix my SW for the trip
I WILL be using tank water in the cooler....and re-adding the new sw to the tank like a mini w/c
I am gonna mix about 20G's...even though I think I will probably only need 10 (15 max) for the cooler...
TOMORROW night....I will be rinsing out cooler and rinsing the new net....
any suggestions on cleaning the cooler...or will a good strong rinse be good enough????

Since you're using it tomorrow, I would avoid chemicals (especially soap). Hot water would be good. If your tap water completely sucks, you can boil ro/di. That seems a little excessive though lol.
Make sure to get one last good picture and to get pictures of the new home as well (you don't have to). It's sad, but it's for the best. Poor girl won't get another chance to splash you during a feeding.

Friday March 5, I will be bringing my stingray to them
I am both saddened and happy about this....As much as I have grown to care for her, I also realize she needs a much larger home then I can provide for her. She is now over 17" from head to tail end, and the disc is now over 10" in diameter...
I plan on preparing 20G's of water the day before, and buying a large cooler (with wheels I hope) which I will fill with tank water....I am going to try to find a large fishing net to catch her. She will go into the cooler with a heater and powerhead which will run off our car inverter.
She will ride in the backseat of my husbands pickup.....
HOPEFULLY all will work smoothly
If anyone has any helpful hints, PLEASE let me know
I will update of course after we do this
It's alright! It's for her own good

Bleach would probably be fine to use, but I still wouldn't recommend it unless it's necessary. If you dry it out, it would evaporate pretty quickly.

Clean the cooler, I'd just water down some bleach rinse it out really good, then set it in the sun, fill it with water again drop some declorinator in it, let it set for a couple hours then be done with it...
