Made it through TSA without a pat down. At first the agent said I couldn’t bring the corals as it was more than 3.5 ounces. Quick chat with the supervisor and showing TSA policy fixed that lol
You printed out the policy on bring corals and show them?

I just tell them I'm a marine biologist and studying coral. They always get excited about it and want to show people.

That's a good idea. We're all kinda of a marine biologist in a way
Works every time. They wiped the bags down with some kinda swab and handed them right back to me after looking at them with wonder when I say they're alive.

My family is visiting my cousins in NJ next summer and go crabbing. I may have to do some planning here

For anyone that needs to know the TSA coral process:

Have your coral in hand as well as policy! They are not all trained yet .

Let's them know you have a special item and what it is...coral.

If asked to throw out water present policy and ask for supervisor.

Present item and policy to supervisor.

Supervisor will waft a strip over water....not in water and test. They will Take a picture and send you on your way.
