Livewell Additives?

[CrappieRadio]

Any recommendations for what to add to a livewell to keep fish healthy? I have to transport live fish back to campus for testing in the lab. My current setup is aeration only and gets the fish back alive but I want to keep the fish as healthy as possible so that they provide accurate test results. Ever try "Catch and Release" or some of the other brands or even salt?

When we did catch/photograph/release on big catfish (30-80# fish) we infused oxygen only and had wonderful results. Still using the original system we purchased many, many years ago but on the Crappie now.

CATCH AND RELEASE FORMULA works good in conjunction with some frozen water bottles. I try to keep my water between 68-72 degrees.

It's that stuff you are talking about, Maj. It just makes Minner feel important to use "PM" in his posts.
