bettachris Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 3875 Kudos: 4173 Votes: 452 Registered: 13-Jun-2004	if i were to sell three of my fish tanks, how would i be able to. i was thinking of wrapping them with bubbles, and putting them into a styro boxs with the paking peanuts. my main issue is the glass breaking during shipping. the tank sizes are two 10s, and a 30.

It would be close to impossible to ship out those tanks and the shipping for the 10 gallon you would be better off buying a new one for how cheap they are. I just dont think its worth it. If you were all i can tell you is to stuff it to the max with bubble wrap and peanuts or even better let your local UPS store do it and get it insured for it to arrive safely and if anything were to happen you'd get it fixed. Just my opinion on the question.
