Just a couple of comments: UPS had their collective head up their a$$ which caused the most problem, and Bill shipped the frags with no air in the bags (they were basically squeezed tight with just a little water) so my frags looked a little crushed. Whether this happened in shipping or that was the was he sent them, I don't know. I do understand that when they get shipped from Bali or Indo they basically come just wrapped in wet paper but it's still rough treatment.
I'm hoping it'll be fine and I'm just going to wait and see how they turn out... that is until they all die on me and I'm gonna have to kick someone's a$$...

Did Dave mean to ship them without air? If not it appears he was trying to save some cash on shipping because that's a retarded idea at best. When Zoas come in from the ocean they usually put a very small amount of water with some sort of damp cloth or plastic but the bags are always full of air. I can see overnight shipping with no air in the bags but sitting in a box for 5 days with no O2 is a death sentence. Another reason I stick to distributers in Canada, I really hope these all pull through for you because those prices are far to high to be receiving dead garbage...
