LFS search and a question

[Mindsgoneawol]

i was wondering if anyone knows of any good saltwater fish dealers in Maine. Preferably in the Portland, Augusta, Gardiner areas.. looks like i may have to leave florida soon.. and i am really enjoying my critters.. i am only a month into this hobbie and don't want to give it up..


another question.. how can i keep my critters alive during a move.. its going to take me at least a day to drive. maybe up to 30 hours.. i only have:

1 yellow tail damsel
4 hermit crabs
5 snails

would a bucket with a spoung filter and a battery powered pump keep them going??

The crabs and snail should be fine without any problems the main is the yellow tail which it is anything like mine really skittish. I guess a good setup would be like what you are talking in maybe like a 5 - 10 gallon rubbermaid container to keep from sloshing have a air hole also maybe. In an area that is the most stable on the road inside of vehicle maybe so you can keep an eye on the container.

Make sure there is something the fish can hide in from the stress of everything and something it can feel protected and wont fall over on it.


Good luck !
