Shipping livestock on the bus. Experence
 
wanted to do one because it's alot cheaper, would be overnight. Just want to here some feedback on your experences. I can ship on the plane just alot more money, and a 30 min. drive to pick it up. I know corals would be fine, but what about fish? And they would be coming from reputable sponsers on the forum, so would be packed, and shipped well. Thanks

I've never had any problems shipping livestock by bus as long as they make the transfer from greyhound to malaspina coach lines in time.

have ordered many times from OA, to the kootenays via greyhound. no issues.
did have my yellow tang puncture the bag he was in. there was maybe an inch of water left in the bag, and he was a pale colour of grey. i thought he was a goner but i floated him in the bag, raised his temp then released him into the tank. that was 8 months ago and he still doing fine.
