Im up in Norcal and have been breeding Berghia. I can usually sell locally without any problems but its to the point where I need to look at shipping to get rid of the numbers Im producing. For those that have either shipped or received Berghia, anything unique about packing, shipping, etc? I would assume its very similar to shipping live corals, which is why I posted here but wanted to ask before I commit to the process.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I got a batch of them shipped a while back... They were packaged exactly as corals would be...
 
Thank you. Curious, were they in specimen cups? How much water/air and how many in a container?

Yes. They came in a standard specimen cup. I ordered 13. They all came in 1 cup. If I recall correctly, I believe it was mostly water, not much air. Maybe 90/10? Seller also included a pipette for easy transfer from cup to tank.

Awesome, thanks again.
 
The ones I ordered a couple weeks ago were in a small specimen cup. The box they were shipped in had a small ice pack placed in it. It was thawed when I got it but still cool..
