rushing my booch

How do I mail SCOBYs??

I have someone that I need to send a SCOBY to but have no clue how I should package it.  How do you all do it so that it doesn't leak, how much tea do I need to send w/ it, do I just mail it with standard shipping or will that take too long?  Help asap please!!  Thanks much!  :) BrandySee More
