Frag shipping survival poll

[ShrimSkin]

I hope that experience from this vendor doesn't discourage online ordering. There are some vendors out there that do a great job.

I had a large Coral Master order, (21 frags) all of which survived.

I had a medium sized Frag A Lot order (8 and 7 survived)

I have another Frag A Lot order (7 frags) coming this week, I'll let you know how it goes.

Only 3 of the 12 zoa frags I received survived. At this point I blame FedEx more than the vendor as fedEx let my shipment sit in a warehouse for an extra day.

I'll hold off on the voting for a week, but so far after 12 hours in my tank, 25 frags (20 sps, 5 zoas) are all alive and well from fragalot.

Received the 2nd Frag A Lot order today. In total there were 42 frags and 1 Chalice colony.

Everything alive and healthy.

How was the temp? my order was in transit for only 16 hours and was ice cold on arrival (apparently Burc had a bad batch of heat packs) and I don't think the three bags that leaked helped any, I guess I was lucky I only lost 6 of 25. I am happy with what survived, nice pieces for the price.

They bags were a little cold, but nothing ice cold.

I had a Frag-a-lot order...12 pcs, all survived the trip. 2 have since been lost (1 sps which was happy when it arrived but started to RTN 3 days later, and 1 zoa which detached from the rock and was "stolen" by my pistol shrimp as decoration in his tunnels)
