Hey guys,
So I made a previous video on how to frag zoas (just click the youtube profile to find the vid). After some practice, I think I'm getting the hang of shipping corals now and here's how I ship them. So far everything's been good other than a trade that had to do with the weather being too warm. Hope this helps some people get some idea on how to ship zoas safely and securely although I'm sure this method can be applied to any corals on a frag plug (minus SPS, I have a good idea on how to ship those) that will be mostly flat.
Here's a list of materials:

Here's a list of materials:
- Razorblade (pretty easy to get anywhere)
- Cyanoacrylate Gel/BSI (should be in your arsenal of fragging already)
- To-Go Sauce cups (local grocery store)
- Heat packs (ebay)
- Fishy baggies (LFS)
- Rubberbands (Anywhere I guess, just got some from the LFS)
- Shipping box with styrofoam box, packaging peanuts, and newspaper. (I just reuse all of the boxes I get from online purchases)
- Optional, but highly recommended: Heat sealing a 3rd layer (I do anyways)
