    Like to check with you all, what is the ruling on sending plants to overseas? I have 3 friends in the states, UK and Spain.

    you got to check the local customs on plant and animals regulation. Like singapore, imported dogs have to be isloated for 1mth before entering etc.

    Send by normal postage. It should go through... but make sure it is water leakage proof. Otherwise it might end up been a false alarm for been some liquid chemical for terrorist attack

    If you are sending by speedpost, etc. then you might face problem if you need to declare the items in the package.

    Officially, you can't send any plant matter to US and UK. I'm sure it's the same for Spain.

    If you send via EMS or speedpost, together with other things, you might be able to get away with it. Be sure to pack it well. Best to use a tupperware box so that you can seal the moisture in. Remember to wrap the plants in moist newspaper.

    Cheers,

    p.s. never declare it as plants.
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?
