Re: best way to keep peelers alive
put them in the fridge to keep them warm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! just cover them in damp newspaper and give them a little drink of fresh sea water every few days ,they should stay alive for a few weeks if you give em tlc

Re: best way to keep peelers alive
i keep them in a plastic biscuit container in the fridge, about 10-15 in each one. i usually put in about a cm of sea water in with them and put the lid on to stop them getting out and change the water every day. if any die i get rid of them.
i find if their a bit hard they pop a bit quicker out of the fridge so put them behind the couch in the kitchen where the missus cant see them
i always keep 3 bottles of water in the fridge keep them topped up every time i head to the beach.
