This is a good idea. I've never put oxygen in a bag, and haven't had troubles shipping fish, but I haven't sent fish any further than about 12 hours in transit. I added this to the "guide" though.

I find if the disk is about the same size as the bag, then it doesn't slosh around in the bag. It is much more stable, and seems to ship better. I added this explanation to the guide.

Excellent information Myka. Thank you!

I agree... this should be a sticky!

You're very welcome! Feel free to send me some frags to practise your packing!
