Reefaplooza coral on a plane

[teebucket]

I plan on going to reefaplooza this weekend and I'm traveling by plane (5+ hour flight across the country)

I'm hoping to bring home some coral however I'm not sure how or if I can even bring coral home with me as I'll be in California 2 days following the show end.

Is there any way for me to transport these corals home? How would I get them through TSA?

This would also be my first flight nor have I been through TSA before.

TSA has limits on how much liquid you can carry on a plane -- and you don't want to check coral as the checked baggage area usually isn't climate controlled.

It'd probably be easiest to overnight them to yourself.
