Have you ever used this stuff?

R VALUE OF 3.7 .... easy to work with....takes up less room in the box........ Works out to be about 50 cents a sf

You would have to use 3/4 firm board to get the same insulating factor. It DOES make for good box stiffeners for sure and a lil cheaper, but eats up valuable box space....yes? ....No?

 Off to the Drs in a lil bit to discuss our options and "game plan".

Hoping gettting beat up by him today isnt part of HIS plan because mine, is to move some fish outta here today.

the insulation that I'm using has that on it....but flakes apart when you cut it....Dennis, amongst others, uses the firmer type....the advantage is the rigidity it adds to the box strength, integrity....

BallAquatics

This is my favorite material 1" in 4x8 sheets from lowes.  I used to get this for $8.00 a sheet but the price has went up.....

I'm out of it too, but it looks like it will be fall before I think about shipping any fish.
