Plastic Bags for Shipping??

I recently bought one of those irons that seals the ends of plastic bags. Now I just need to buy the bags. I'm looking to use it for shipping coral frag so I'm guessing that they should be somewhere between 3"-4"X3"-4". Can anyone point me in the right direction where I can get these bags. And a link would be greatly appreciated!

Are you talking regular poly bags? Go with 2mil and at least double or triple bag stuff. Their cheap and that's what most use to ship or transfer coral,fish. 3"x4" is really small I would at least get 8"long ones if you plan to have room for air in the bags.
PLUS you can seal them at what ever length you want.
