Default Frozen Frags

Has anyone ever had frags recover when they were encased in slush or frozen. What did you do for them? Right now I just have them floating in a QT tank trying to thaw.

UPS lost the shippment, suppost to be here Tues. By 8:00 that night I got worried and checked the tracking again. It said it was delivered at 5:11 but nothing was here. Called UPS to find it. Got up just before 2 this afternoon and found a frozen package on my front step with no knock or Doorbell.

Could UPS have left it on your step Tuesday? I seriously doubt UPS was making any deliverys on New Years Day. Could a neighbor have signed for it and left it out?

I hate UPS. Never frozen frags but have had some solid test kits.

Yes I was shocked to see it today. All I know is it was not here when I went to bed this morn but it was when I woke up this afternnon. Their tracking said it was left on front step at 17:11 (I was home). What address they left it at I don't know but they did have my correct address. I can't even find out if it was the Driver that dropped it off or not cause UPS is closed today.

Being that corals are alive I would have to say your frags are toast.
