I have been trying for over a year now to get ready to ship fish. Little steps, got a 02 tank, ordered boxes, 4mil plastic bags. went round and round with Fed-ex about shipping fish. Sent in 3 boxes to their testing labs and failed all 3, but my rep. told to go ahead and ship. Called UPS finally and was told all I need to do was to double bag in 4mil. bags. 1/3 water and 02 and I was good to go.
I tested my 02 tank and brand new regulator as I set it up and I could not seem to get the air to flow at a light rate, it would just come blasting out. I had gotten a welding 02 tank and new regulator and I was sure I was following directions. Why was it not working, I could not be this blond for pity's sake, I use to be an RT. It was coming out at such a blast of hard air no matter how I turned the value that I had visions of blasting the bag holding the poor fish & water all over the garage wall.
Finally I gave up trying it myself and told the setup back to the welding/gas suppliers. Help!! What the heck am I doing wrong?? They tried it, nothing worked for them either. Lady, the regulator is bad doh.gif They replaced it and made sure it is working this time
