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.

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)
