Shipping a mated pair of clowns?

[Sinocard]

A friend wants to ship me a pair of his clowns. He's never shipped fish before.

We're unsure whether he should put them in the same bag since they're mated.

What's the proper way to ship a pair of mated clowns?

(Bought a kit for shipping, just need to know about the clowns!)

Separately. With lots of O2. And dont overheat them with heatpacks.

Definitely separate. 1/3 water and 2/3 air.

If possible use pure oxygen instead of just air. This can make the difference between receiving live fish or stinky fish soup.

Do not feed them for 24 plus hours.
1/3 water 2/3 pure oxygen is fine
Oxygen can be purchased at either a medical or welding supply place.
