Well after the 24 hour delay, the zoos arrived at 0945 yesterday. Devin did an admirable job in getting them here. Unfortunately UPS seems to have paid very little attention to the "FRAGILE" stickers on the box. In one case the jostling the box received caused a sharp rock to puncture the DOUBLE bag, and empty it. In addition that frag fell off the rock. That also happened to another frag. I found one frag right away. The other was located in the bag after returning from work. There was no water in the bag, but I put the frag in the tank anyway, and it was opening up nicely. These things were all beyong Devin's control. It needs to be remembered that we are at the mercy of the shipping company. When I noticed the wet box, I could have refused the shipment, and made a claim against UPS. However, because zoos are hard to find in Canada, I gambled, and the gamble appears to have paid off.

That sounds good. Take some pics if/when you have a chance! I'd like to see how they look. Was it everything you expected?

I talked to UPS about 100 times over the last little while and we worked up a deal with shipping live stock with them, they now will touch as little amount of hands as possible, less hands transfered less damange to the box

But Rob, I am glad everything turned out, if there is anything I can do for you please let me know

That will be a peoblem. As you may know, or not know, it takes zoanthids a long time to become fully acclimatised. Therefore they do not fully open up for awhile. In addition my camera is not worth a hoot for closeup work.

Anybody else ordering soon? If so I wouldn't mind tagging on an extra order to help offset shipping. I only want one or two zoo frags so it wouldn't really be economical to pay $40 shipping on $35-$70 worth of zoos.

Thanks to Chad for organizing the group order.

Here is a pic of the zoos I received. Day two in the tank. Unfortunately day one was spent face first in the sand due to a over zealous Tang.
