Best Way to Ship Macro

What is the absolute best way to ship macro algae in a ziplock bag.(using the priority mail deal where its only like $4 to ship anywhere)? What method will insure best surviviability, and maybe also allow for some pods and other critters to make the trip. Thanks for the info!

I don't know the best way to ship it but I will tell you ziplock bags will leak. Get bags from the LFS and tie them really tight. Thats your better bet and double or triple bag.
