A 13 hr trip isn't that bad. I would think your stuff should be fine. Think about it - Most online sources pull the coral/fish from their tanks and even when shipped overnight are probably bagged for more than 24 hrs.

The shipping boxes and bags will be packed for a 24 hour or more trip. Shippers usually pack critters as dense as possible to save on shipping. Since you are driving, they will be packed more "loosely." Also, the airline holds where the boxes are kept can be very hot and then very cold. In your car, the temp will be consistant.

I think Saturday night is reserved for hunting wild boar in the Everglades. Either that or snipe hunting.

Well, since we can't collect in the dark and the LFS will be closed, yall could do anything ya wanted to. There's the "Pier" where there is shopping, a science museum, and a few tanks set up. Nightime in "God's waiting room" is generally quiet here.
BTW - A 12 foot long Great White Shark was seen just off the beach at Indian Rocks Beach. I saw a shark about that size last week near there. I wonder.......
I hope none of you were in the Navy. It would not be safe for you in the water here.
After all.........a SEAL is a Great Whites natural prey.......

I have not been on for the past few weeks, so I missed alot of posts.
But, Rodger and I would love to come too. Prime, it would be great if we all flew out together. Is your wife coming? I am going to try to talk Rodger into more days after the collecting for beach time, though. But, we could fly out together. We should start looking for tickets now. Rodger is great at finding cheap flights!
Oh no! I need to go on a diet!! UGHHHHHHHH!
I have looked at some of the back posts. But, I need more information.
Cuddle, Please pm or email me
Thank you,
Alane

It looks like I will not be able to this time. My daughter is engaged. Ya'll know how much weddngs cost. My my! You all have fun though and bring something back for me. Lol
Tell the daughter she has to be engaged for at least 2 years so she knows it will work before she gets married! That way you can still go and it will ensure the marriage will endure!
They have been practically engaged for 3 years. He just put money back until he could afford the ring. In addition, they have to have 6 months counseling from a personal friend of mine (so I can keep tabs on them) ha!
I also, am starting a new business so opportunity isn't knocking this time.
