Sure. the thing is I have never shipped stuff before. if you want to talk me through it, it would be fine. I have a shipping container (from a J&L order), but no bags big enough. I suppose I could line it in a few garbage bags, but it kinda makes me nervous.

What size are the Monti Caps? Which colors are left? Prices (inc Chalice)?

Try going to an LFS that carries big fw fish like Plecos, Cichlids, that sort of thing...they will often have huge fish bags that are super thick too.

I have one piece of cap that is maybe 8 x4 x4 and then one that is 6 x 6 x 6, I would want about $65 for one. I have smaller, and they would be less.

I have big piece of purple chalice left about 5 x 8 and it would be $70, then I have some smaller pink and purple pieces left.

That makes sense. I know where to go for them, now that you mentioned it.

Are you thinking air freight, or the bus?

I am thinking bus. Or are you talking to the guy who wants the big Acro?

Could you post a pic of the bigger caps? If I buy a cap, I will take the purple Chalice too. Two pieces would make the shipping worthwhile. I need some calcium and magnesium too.

It is not sold yet. Can you research the bus sched from Winnipeg to where you are and see if you think it will work. It still makes me a bit nervous, as I have never done it before. I heard one can buy those heat packs for it.

Shipping is easy. Make it look like shipments you have received!

PM sent.

I am curious to see pics of the colonies I sold.

Anyone have them, are they coloring up well?

Mine is currently residing in Mikes 150g, for various reasons. It looks good and when he gets home this weekend, perhaps we can take a pic for you and post it on his tank thread.

Do you have any pieces left?
