Tips for shipping these fish?

[LiveMermaid07]

I may be shipping these fish, but how many can I put in each bag - and which ones can I put together?


Blue gouramis - nearly 5 inches long

2 full grown bronze cories + 3 almost full grown fry + 2 or 3 little fry (nearly an inch now)

3 full grown cherry barbs

2 not quite full grown highfin platys

1 - 3 bettas (I'm going to assume a bag by themselves each?)

1 neon

1 white cloud

4 black khulies - around 4 inches each

I think that's everybody.
I don't have breather bags, they are just the regular petstore bags. I do have an air pump to put some air in before tying them.

And which selections should I triple or quadruple the bags?

And where in relation to the fish do I put heat packs?

Thanks!

And suggestions on how to box or rather which boxes to use?
The large priority flat rate aren't very deep, should I just use regular boxes instead?
And several or just one large one?
Thanks.

Whoops and 2 otos.

Also there may be 3 white clouds. Seems one of the neighbors kids brought home a couple and his parents don't want to go to the store to take them back. I've got them seperated from the rest for now.


Another also, I may be able to get breather bags. What difference in how to bag them all does that make (how many and which would I be able to safely fit in each bag)?

Thanks!

ok, duh me, there's different size breather bags, which would be recommended for these?

and do they have to be doubled like regualr bags or no?

The little I"ve been able to find out about these breathing bags is maybe labarynth fish can go in them, but just leave some air in the top like regualr bags?
What about cories and otos? They go to the top for air to, should there be a pocket of air at the top for them in these bags?
