So I feel like this is a rather unique question, I have no problem with and I’m totally comfortable transporting fish via car. However I’ve recently moved to Texas and decided to ride a motorcycle as my daily driver. It’s only a 15 minute ride to work, and I wear a backpack.
My question is, how would this work for fish transport? I’m looking at setting a little 5 gallon Dymax IQ7 in my cubicle and this is the key hurdle I’m worried about.
 
I feel like they get shook around the same if not more in the big boxes when shipped across the globe than they would in a 15 min ride.
 
From what I can remember riding in the South, things can heat up pretty quickly if the sun is on you. You could do a trial run with a small cooler and a couple bags of tank temp water to see what the temperature is when you arrive.
