Shipping Cerith snails?

[adnup]

I've shipped alot of corals but new to snails.

Cerith Snails

1. Do they need overnight or is priority mail 2 day ok?
2. Should I put some seaweed in with them?
3. Water to air ratio? more air or more water?

Sorry for all of the questions.

TIA ADNUP

I have always received snails and hermits in a bag with damp paper towels or newspaper. Not sure if that's the best way but seems to be the status quo. Two day should be fine or even priority.

Any one else have experience shipping or receiving these snails?

I just got some from LA... they were shipped in a water with nothing else. They came from Miami to Illinois and were delivered overnight. No heatpack but they were packed in a styrofoam box. I know that many times snails can be shipped in wet newspaper but no experience with ceriths that way.
