Adding salt, ice. your own water at the supplier's site or any chemical will cause you far more problems than solutions in such a short ride!

In fact, if you have twice the water to fish weight, you won't even need air for a haul that short!! KISS applies here


That is what I am looking for keep it simple. Ok my plan is more water then needed and an air pump on the truck pumping air to air stones in the totes. I gave all my aquarium stuff away so I need to get a small air pump or steel grandmas O2 for the day...... tee he he. Just kidding grandma.
