twogirls Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 looking for small styrofoam boxes for shipping frags? Looking for ones that are probably 10-12 inches squared. Not quite as big as the shipment boxes that LFS get their live product in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twogirls Posted May 14, 2007 Author Share Posted May 14, 2007 also, where to buy a 20 gallon Long tank? I don't shop at Wal-Mart either. So anywhere but there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael7979 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 If you decide to use the boxes that LFS get their shipments in............talk to Ryan at Advanced Aquarium. Bet he would probably give them away. Try PetSmart or PetCo if you care to go there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Or if you can't find those styro boxes, you can get USPS to send you the priority boxes, the small square ones about 10" square, for free. Then just line them with pieces of stryofoam. You can get sheets of styro for real cheap if not free. Just another option! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can cut down the stryofoam from the LFS boxes to fit to finish it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite as big as the shipment boxes that LFS get their live product in. I would ask a life science research lab (at a university/community college?) for the shipping boxes they receive. My lab gets them allll the time. I even took a few for transporting my fish from here to Portland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mister crabs Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 check your local grocery store as well....lots of times the seafood shipments come in in those boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefhut Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 If you have your boxes already just go down to Home Depot and buy 3/4 inch styrofoam board. Then you can take a razor blade and cut out liners that fit into the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefhut Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 ....If you still want to buy boxes with styrofoam, I have 6, 8, 10, 12inch sets I can sell you. But I'm in Portland. LMK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
