Airport shipping ?

[Herbie]

Hey Richard,
Just sent you an e-mail inquiring about some "nano sized" live rock (didnt realize you were on the sponsor roums, lol). I am setting up a new tank after being out of the hobby for a while.........nano sps tank. Its a small all in one tank so sadly........no "Herbie" overflow on this one, lol.
Anyway, I am the one with a sizeable drive to a Major airport 3+ hours each way. I searched some (more local, smaller) airlines for carriers, and Harrisburg PA is only a little over an hour for me so that may work. Could you ship to Harrisburg PA (MDT)?
I am thinking about just getting "the package" instead of just rock. It would be the 20 gallon size. Does everything come in one shipment so I wouldnt have to make more than one trip to the airport?

Thanks,
Herbie

shipping....

Hiya

MDT works...will check on it...as shipping anything to the Northeast is a bit dicey now with all the cancellations and back logs from Sandy...

Package comes in two parts.....as the tank has to cycle....check out the info here....

I will check with the airlines today and see how they are doing...

Thanks Richard, I am not in a huge rush. I am still a few weeks away from the live rock stage anyway. Maybe middle of November.
2 trips to the airport may be pain though. Perhaps I can just get all the live rock, and some live sand in one shipment for now instead of the package. I will prob need approx 40lbs of smaller sized liverock and approx 10lbs of live sand for now. I will e-mail you for a quote.

Thanks,
Herbie

Would love to see what you get for this. I too have lusted over the TBS rock for a while. I have a 24 gallon aquapod, i would love to try out. Im in middletown so please share the experience when it comes in. I have been playing with a similar idea as you. Just buying package 1. Rock and sand. 25lbs of rock and 10lbs of sand.

Thanks guys, just my little contribution to our awesome hobby. Hopefully it has helped some of us.

BTW, sorry Richard, I just didnt have the time in my busy schedule to get to the airport twice to get this done. TBS rock is great stuff........I have had it before and the life on it is like nothing else I have seen.

Cheers all :beer:

I understand the driving...is 6 hours every trip I make to the keys collecting....but if you had other tanks to hold part 2 of the Package in....you could get it all in one shot...
