FINAL UPDATE:
The shipment finally arrived yesterday at around 11am and nobody was home so they left the box at the doorstep. However my wife didn't arrive home until around 4pm. Considering the high temp yesterday was around 8 degrees celcius and they were sitting outside for about 5 hours probably made the smell more bearable......
I got home around 6pm and the water was around 15 degrees celcius. The water in the bags were all brown. (I was quite impressed at the size of what was supposed to be the green digitata with orange polyps frag. It was probably around 2.5 inches long)
I put floated them in my sump for about 3 hours and opened them up. After opening the 3rd bag, I just threw them in the garbage can. The contents in the bag literally smelled like urine. I was going to call Josh and asked him if he went to the bathroom in the bag
but the livestock were all dead.
I calculated if Josh had bagged them up around 5pm on Wed, they would have been in the bag for a total of 124 hours! Which would mean that they were probably in a warehouse for 100 hours at around 16-19 degree temperature, and about 5 hours at around 10 degrees celcius.
ON A POSITIVE NOTE:
I should note that Josh had already refunded my money even before I received the shipment. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.
Sincerely grateful,
Chin Lee
