    I could not begin to count the plugs of xenia's I bagged up last winter . We always float them on little floats and you can cut way back on water and use more oxygen in the bags or even compressed air . The water just keeps them wet air and gas exchange is what keeps them alive.. I float all corals if they are small plugs or frags .. Oh and air weighs less then water :) I had gotten to dry shipping the sps corals and many LPS. I think when I get back up and running I'm going to work on that more . that way people pay overnight for corals and not water.. Heck we gotten to shipping softs 2nd day no problems ..Sent about 400 plugs to Richmond like that dry packed and 2nd day they looked like overnight they said all where fine on arrival and they lost none at all..
