[smcooler]

U-line 3 mil 4x14 and tie the bag. We triple bag them is that helps. Each bag individually tied. Very rarely have a problem with leaks.

I triple bag aswell, rubber band tie the first 2, then use a zip tie on the 3rd bag

when bagging I use 18" long and tie them all off, triple bag with a liner in the first one of the corals have sharp edges. Uline 2 mil

get a little bit longer of a bag and just tie the bag off with no air in the bag. no bands needed.

You need air in the bag for Co2 exchange IIRC.

I get mine from Ship My aquatics or get a box locally.

Triple bag,and I use 2 rubber bands per bag,and I use the big heavy duty bands,not the cheap little thumb sized bands,I break those way to easy!

I never put air in the bags.............all water! and the 2 mil is key, the 4 mil dont seal well cause they are too thivk, it works against you unless maybe you have an expensive banding sealer but even then 4 mil is too thick IME

4"x18" is good, 3" is pretty small might as well use 4oz. urine specimen cups for the smaller ones, those are cheap and wont leak.
