- Here I show you how I package my fish to go to their new homes! I sell home bred and imported bettas on my site and they go via UPS and USPS to get to the buyer.
As of now I am sold out, but I will be restocking in the next 1-2 weeks. You can find my fish at PNWBettas.com
Where else you can find me:
Tiktok (I post every day!): / pnwbettas
Instagram: / pnwbettas
I sell fish now! Check out my website: www.pnwbettas.com
Here's where I get all my shipping supplies:
USPS Boxes: I order these free from the post office, I use 7x7x6, medium flat rate, and express boxes. store.usps.com...

I really do like the idea of heat sealing the bags. I can never tie my bags & I think heat sealing them would work so much better for me. Thank you for this wonderful video!
This is so cool that you started a small business for yourself that happens to be a personal passion! LOVE IT! When will you have more fish available?
Nevermind, if I actually was half-way smart, i would have read your bio...1-2 weeks!
I looked at your fish, very beautiful!
Your beautiful ❤️…! just saw your website definitely going to order some betta from you
Im happy I just found you. I like the idea of heat sealings as I hope to start selling and shipping my betta Fry in the near future. Thanks for the great tips :)
Beautiful betta breeder ❤
Hi shout out from Betta Philippines 🇵🇭 breeders ✅ watching your vlog ..
Going to be ordering from you heard great things :) my question for you is what’s ur top 3 favorite bettas ? Like what would you recommend also
I LOOOVE YOUR VIDEOS,
CONGRATULATIONS 🎉✨
Amazing your location miss ?
Thank you!! If I’m shipping in super hot conditions, like 90-100 degrees, how do I keep the fish from over heating? Will the inclination keep them cool enough?
To an extent, but looking at the weather is extremely important. I don’t ship at all if it’s above 100. I have a hard cutoff.
I also do not use USPS priority over 95 degrees. This is for the entire potential delivery window (normally Tuesday-Friday).
This video is pretty old and I do things differently now. I only use 1” thick insulation for shipping now
Interesting to see your process.
I'm wondering how's the sorority tank that you featured in a previous video?
You’re very pretty! 😍
I concur...like model type of beauty. I need a HELLBOY BETTA! I am going to try to buy from you!
Excellent!! Can you tell me where you get the bags? If you give me the link I will appreciate and thank you!!!
I’ve gotten tons of different types in the past. I either import some specifically for bettas, or I buy them from kens now. They are real cheap there. I now prefer 18” bags because they are easier to tie
Do you need any type of license in the US to ship fish?
Nice..
What size/dimension styrofoam shipping box would fit 5 bags of Bettas standing upright? I am going to be shipping my 5 pet betta fish since I am moving to a different country, so this video was really useful!
Just a heads up, you can’t ship to another country like this. The box will get pulled at customs and they won’t deliver it. You have to go though a process of exporting and importing for live animals, which required a license and the fees generally rack up to a few hundred dollars. If you moving to another country, you can bag and box them, but just bring them on the plane with you. You will probably have to talk to some people, and they will probably want to test the water. Check with customs and your airline too. But that’s the best chance you have of them being transported
I’m looking for a good way to keep the box cool for 2 days for places over 90 degrees.
There isn’t anything effective for tropical fish. Animals like axolotls and goldfish can be shipped with cold packs with overnight shipping but they can tolerate cooler temps. Bettas can’t, and ice packs would melt before it arrived 2 days later. The best way to do shipping in summer is having people pickup from the post office, and not shipping over 95.
Hey. Great video! Do you don’t need to add oxygen to the bag? Would they last 2-3days in the bag?
I don’t no. I’ve had fish to 5 days in transit due to delays and still be fine. I’ve heard of fish going up to 2 weeks in extreme causes of lost boxes/delays
@@pnwbettas Thank you. That’s great to know as I always thought you needed oxygen.
@chrisdelafuente8489 Oxygen is present in both the water and the air above it.
A lot of fish or plants are sold out!!!
Hello! I have a question... where do you get those live fish stickers. I Ship out snails and i really want to get some
Amazon has them!
💙💙
Where did you get the boxes to ship them
I source my boxes much differently now, as I’m shipping in much larger quantities and have a commercial space :)
I order from glacier pac (only ships to commercial locations I think), or Uline molded boxes in the skid lots. Then I order the outer box part separately from them as well.
I have the uline ones linked under my axolotl shipping video!
Where do you get your precut Styrofoam?
There are many online retainers! I switch it up looking for the best prices. I linked some in the description
Hi! Where do you get the bags?
The clear ones are from amazon. I’ve gotten some from kens as well
