Hello,

I was wondering what gear will be needed for the collection Trip? Will a net be provided or should I bring my own collapseable net?

Also are there any provisions for the fish caught? Will there be a bucket or bags provided to get the fish back to the hotel rooms?

Will it be up to us to keep them alive in the hotel rooms until Sunday when they can be shipped out?


Just wondering if I need to pack airpumps and a cycled sponge filter or two.

Thanks.

I wouldn't bother with your own net. I've been on a couple of trips with the ALA and what we use is better than a collapsible net. I would take your own bucket as well as a battery powered air pump or two (don't forget extra batteries). I am almost sure you will need to keep them in your own room until you are ready to ship them out. Make sure you bring brine shrimp and frozen baby brine shrimp.

I see, Maybe have to take a cab to somewhere to buy a bucket once I get there as I am flying in.

you can bring your own net if you like,

please don't bring a bucket, we will take care of containers while collecting

you should bring, sunglasses, sun-tan stuff, a hat, shorts would be good, shoes you don't mind getting wet or dirty

you will have to maintain anything kept till you leave

should be a bunch of fun

see ya here
