Posted Breathable Shipping Bags & Heat packs

Can you use the two together.

I have shipped loads of guppies in the summer. However i sent some last night with a heat pack and they were dead. I don't think its the temp as i did loads of testing with min / max thermometers.

I'm thinking because the poly box was sealed, the heat pack might have used all the available oxygen, meaning there was none for the fish.

Obviously with the breathable bags you don't put any room for air - as the air comes from the outside.

surely brathable bags are pointless if you make the poly box airtight? ,some heat packs will use oxygen but not the type i expect you would use
